Pomegranate Rice


Ingredients:
Boiled Rice - 3 cups
Pomegranate seeds (fresh) - 1 cup
Bread slices - 2
Onion - 1 (chopped)
Ginger - 1 tsp. (chopped)
Oil - 2 tbsp.
Salt (to taste)
Garam masala - ¼ tsp.
Red chili powder - ½ tsp.
Oil (for deep frying bread)

Method:
Heat the oil for deep frying. Cut the bread into tiny squares.
Deep fry them into a golden color and place it on an absorbent paper.
Heat the oil in a kadai .
Add the onions and fry till they turn golden brown.
Add chopped ginger and stir-fry for a minute.
Add salt, red chili powder and garam masala.
Add the boiled rice and mix well.
If you are going to serve immediately, add the pomegranate seeds and fried bread pieces. Mix well.
Serve garnished with left over pomegranate seeds.
Note: It’s always good to add the bread during serving time to avoid their sogginess.
