How To Cook Tamarind Rice
Tamarind rice or pulisaadham or puliyodharai are perennial favourites of the South Indians especially the Tamils. It is obvious that the key ingredient in this recipe must be the Tamarind and this tamarind is widely used in cooking many types of Asian food. But the interesting thing about the tamarind rice of the tamils is the generous use of spices; the intention being that the cooked rice will not only taste better but last longer. It is also known as festive rice because no temple festival will be complete without a generous serving of the tamarind rice. While the tamarind and the spices and the recipe and the generous advice that go to make the tamarind rice are readily available at our off-line shop at SS 19 Subang Jaya, what excited us most was the availability of a 6.24 minute video at “youtube” demonstrating how to cook excellent tamarind rice. The awesome video by Vah Chef Sanjay Thumma of www.vahrehvah.com is intended mainly for the Indian diaspora outside of India.
