Palaya saadham ( Old cooked rice) - 1/2 cup
Tamarind pulp - gooseberry size
Turmeric powder -1/2 tsp
Oil - 2 tbsp
Curry leaves - few springs
Urad dhal - 1tsp
mustard seeds - 1tsp
Ginger garlic paste - 1tsp
onion -1/2 small
green chilies - 2
chilly powder -1/2tsp
Salt to taste
Method
1. Take old rice in a bowl and add 1/2 tsp of turmeric powder and tamarind pulp and mix well with ur hand adding some salt. Allow it to soak overnight
2. In the morning take a kadai and heat oil. Add curry leaves, urad dhal and mustard seeds.
3. When mustard splutters, add the onions and saute them well.
4. When the onions are slight pink add the ginger garlic paste, green chillies slitted and saute until the raw smell goes away.
5. Add chilly powder and this point and cook for few minutes.
6. Now add the old rice mixture which is been soaking until the morning and give a nice stir
7. Cook for few minutes until all masalas blend into the rice
8. This serves as a nice breakfast or tea time snack and is a break from the normal tiffin varities like idli and dosa. Also people who are on diet can have this in the morning. As it is quite filling, lunch can be altered with a salad and u can still be active without hunger. Great way to start a day.
Looks yummy!

Dear Crazy, thanks for your post.
No harm in asking your doubts.
What you can do is, add little warm water and extract thick tamarind juice.
just enough for the rice, or to your taste.
Mix it with the rice using a spoon, or your fingers.
Keep it in the fridge over night.
What I did was mixed the tamarind juice and just kept it for 30 minutes.
Then I seasoned the rice, taste wonderful just like puli saatham.
Try it out, very simple. Come often with your kelvigal.
Thanks and take care, Kugan
