Heritage Temple Puliyogare

The iconic South Indian Tamarind Rice, elevated by the deep, nutty flavor of pure cold-pressed sesame oil.

Ingredients

2 cups cooked rice (cooled and grains separated)
3 tbsp HANUSIRI Wood-Pressed Sesame Oil (Gingelly Oil)
3 tbsp readymade Puliyogare (Tamarind Rice) paste
1/4 cup roasted peanuts
1 tsp mustard seeds
1 sprig fresh curry leaves
2 dried red chilies

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1

Spread the cooked rice on a wide plate. Drizzle 1 tbsp of raw wood-pressed sesame oil over it and mix gently. This keeps grains separate and adds authentic flavor.

Step 2

In a wide pan, heat the remaining 2 tbsp of sesame oil. Add mustard seeds and let them splutter.

Step 3

Add dried red chilies, curry leaves, and roasted peanuts. Sauté for 30 seconds.

Step 4

Add the Puliyogare paste and cook on low heat for 2 minutes until the oil separates slightly from the paste.

Step 5

Turn off the heat. Add the cooled rice to the pan and gently toss until every grain is evenly coated in the tangy, spicy mixture.

Step 6

Serve with fried papad for a perfect traditional meal.
