Garlic Pearl Onion Rice | Infant & Toddler Food Ideas | Indian Rice Recipes

Don't get scared by the name.. Garlic and onion rice. Aren't those major foods which demand a breath mint. Trust me when I say this rice has medicinal qualities. Garlic and Onions fried in ghee and mixed with hot rice relieves gas and indigestion. But you would not believe how super tasty this rice would be. My 20 mo just loves this for the flavour of crispy fried onions in ghee. This recipe here serves three people, just a couple of morsels per person should be taken.

Ingredients:
Serves - 3
Steaming Cooked Rice - 2 cups (1 cup-240 ml)
Pearl onions / Sambar onions - 12
Garlic - 10 
Fresh Ground Pepper - a big pinch
Salt - a big pinch
Ghee - 1 tbsp

Method:
Peel the pearl onions and garlic and chop very finely. Heat ghee in a tawa and fry the chopped onions and garlic until it starts to turn brown. Take care not to burn them. Remove from heat and mix in the salt and pepper. Now add the hot steaming rice and mix really well, taking care not to break the grains. Serve hot.
Notes: Pearl onions shall not be replaced by regular onions and don't skip ghee either.
