This sesame rice recipe is such a flavourful, perfect and even a quick lunchbox idea. This Ellu Sadam recipe is mainly prepared during Makar Sankranthi, Aadi 18 but you can have it during winter season frequently, as sesame seeds have the property of giving heat to the body. These sesame seeds have high iron content so people with Anaemia can have it at least twice in a week and it also strengthens the bones. But, try to use unpolished/unhulled sesame seeds as the nylon / hulled variety sesame seeds are less nutritious. I have already shared sesame seeds ladoo / Ellu Urundai in the blog if interested check it.

Notes

Tips for Sesame Rice Recipe

  1. I cooked the rice in the water ratio of 1 into 1:5. Ensure the rice grains are separate and completely cooled, so it does not turn mushy while mixing.
  2. I used sona Masoori rice, you can even use Basmati Rice or any leftover rice too.
  3. Adjust red chilli and sesame seeds as per spiciness and flavour required.
    I used black sesame seeds, you can use white sesame seeds too.
  4. For more flavour, 2 crushed garlic flakes and 1/8 tsp of hing can be used while tempering.
  5. For a slight crunchiness and different taste, 1 tbsp of roasted peanuts or cashews can be added.
  6. The ground sesame seeds powder can be made in bulk and stored in a clean, airtight, dry jar. It stays good for 2 weeks under refrigeration.
