    Indian Curry Rice recipe with step by step pictures.While you can use any curry you have, but I'm using my homemade curry powder. It is easy and packed with full of flavors.

    Indian Curry Rice

    Few days back i was watching some cooking videos on youtube and i came across a video in which they made curry rice. Each country has their own version of curry rice. japanese has a lot more starch added in them which makes their curry more silky. So i decided to make my version of indian curry rice..I made a batch of homemade curry powder and used that in this curry and the curry came together in under 35 mins or so. I will be making the other country curry rice as well, so keep checking.

    I served this with brown rice, you can serve this with white rice, roti, idiyappam or appam as well. Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you.
