Description

Jeera Rice is a simple yet flavorful Indian rice dish made by sautéing cumin seeds (jeera) in ghee or oil until aromatic, then cooking basmati rice with the tempered seeds along with whole spices like bay leaf, cinnamon, and cloves for added fragrance. The cumin seeds impart a warm, earthy flavor that enhances the mildness of the fluffy basmati rice, making it an ideal accompaniment to a variety of Indian curries, dals, and gravies. Jeera Rice is cherished for its ease of preparation, comforting taste, and versatility, often served during festive occasions or everyday meals. Its subtle aroma and light texture make it a favorite choice for those seeking a lightly spiced, fragrant rice dish.
