Neychoru/Malabar Ghee Rice

  Neychoru/ Malabar Ghee Rice   Ghee rice is a rich and fragrant rice that can be paired with spicy chicken or mutton curry. Ghee/ clarified butter gives an exotic twist to regular boring rice and transforms it into a beautiful and satisfying meal. Ghee adds a richness and nutty flavor to the rice, and the dish is garnished, with aromatic spices, fried onions, nuts, and raisins- all preferably fried in ghee. It also has a mild yet pleasing aroma from spices, lemon, and rose water. You can get creative and try flavors like mint, saffron, and pineapple. Ghee rice is so versatile that it goes with any curry, both vegetarian and non-vegetarian. But let us talk about the best combination. It goes well with spicy Malabar chicken curry, mutton curry, beef fry, or Malabar chicken fry. Together the flavors and taste is simply unique, and it is a great way to spruce up your meals.

So let me call this home style, standardized regular curry, which she makes every Sunday. Now when I’m feeling extra nostalgic for homey taste, I make this chicken curry.  It goes well with almost anything-naans, chapatis, ghee rice, fried rice, or with freshly baked bread.   Coconut milk adds flavor and a touch of sweetness to the curry. If you like, you can add s...
