Tip 1 : Use lesser quantity of water while cooking the rice for this dish in the rice cooker will ensure that the rice is separate and dry. Too much water will make the cooked rice mushy.
Tip 2 : You can add in some lime peels in it. Just grate a little bit of peel from an uncut lime . Gives a very nice tangy taste and smell.
Tip 3: You can use some curry leave s while cooking the vegetables,
Tip 4: If you really like it hot then you can add few peper corns during cooking of the vegetables.
Tip5: You can add in some white vinegar or balsamic vinegar
Tip6: To cook it really fast I use Rice cooker to cook the rice and use the microwave to pre cook the vegetables to reduce the cooking time.
