Coconut mustard rice is made by mixing cooked rice with a unique masala paste. This masala paste is made up of freshly grated coconut and mustard seeds as the main ingredients, along with fresh curry leaves, chilies, jaggery, tamarind, and ginger for taste enhancement. Chana dal, urad dal, and peanuts are also added to give it a unique nutty experience in every bite.

Notes

Do not put too much water to make the masala paste.
I always use freshly grated coconut to make the dish. It gives the authentic taste.
Do not cook for a long time after adding the boiled rice. Just mix and serve.
