| 1. Cook the 2 cups rice with water and the 1/2 teaspoons turmeric until tender. Set aside to cool. | 2. Dry fry the 1/2 teaspoons fenugreek seeds and powder them. Set aside. | 3. Dry fry the sesame seeds and powder them. Set aside. | 4. In a dutch oven or other large cooking vessel put the 3 Table. oil, 1 Table. urad dal, 1 Table. chana dal, 1 Table. mustard seeds, and the dried red chilies. | 5. Split the serrano chilies part way up and add them to the spices. Heat over high heat until the mustard seeds are popping AND the dals are light brown. | 6. Reduce heat to medium and stir in the 12 curry leaves. | 7. Add the tamarind concentrate and 1/2 cup water. Stir-fry for 3 minutes, adding a little more water if needed. The tamarind concentrate needs to cook a bit to loose its raw taste. | 8. Stir in 1/4 teaspoons hing, the powdered fenugreek seeds and the powdered sesame seeds. Cook for 2 more minutes. The water should have evaporated by this time. | 9. Reduce heat to low and stir in 2 teaspoons salt. | 10. Slowly add the cooked rice and stir until it is well mixed. Remove from heat. | 11. In a small frying pan put the remaining oil, urad dal, chana dal and mustard seeds. Heat over high heat until the dals are light brown. Quickly stir in the 6 curry leaves and then pour the spices over the top of the rice for a crunchy topping. | 12. 1 teaspoons of curry powder can be added when you add the powdered sesame seeds, if desired. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
