Pepper cumin rice recipe, super easy variety rice for comforting cold day meal. Quick video, step by step photos.
As I have mentioned in my milagu jeeraga idiyappam post, my mom makes super quick milagu jeeraga sadam. She crushes a little black pepper and cumin seeds in ammi coarsely. The flavor that imparts when these two ingredients are crushed is really different and strong than the mixie powdered ones. She always feeds us hot rice with ghee and this crushed milagu jeeragam, salt. Nothing else, but with her hand mixed rice, it is sure a bliss to enjoy.
So I just improvised by adding a tadka to it since I am sharing this as a recipe. Do try it if you have not tried so far, it is really unbelievably tasty. Tomorrow is kanni pongal, so if you celebrate it at home, do try this one.

How to make pepper jeera rice?
First cook rice and keep it ready as separate grains/ fluffy. Coarsely powder black pepper corns, cumin seeds. In a pan, add ghee, temper with mustard seeds, urad dal and cashews, curry leaves. Switch off and add crushed pepper, cumin seeds, salt and cooked rice. Mix to serve!
Sounds simple right? For a lazy version just crush pepper, cumin and mix with hot cooked rice, salt and ghee.

Notes

- Do not let the pepper and cumin get roasted. Keeping it almost raw gives a best balanced flavour without over powering.
- Peanuts, chana dal can also be added, but I like to keep it simple.
