Tomato rice (Pulao)

Tomato rice or Pulao has a South Indian flair as Samber powder in this recipe I have used. Samber powder is a spice blend used in many South Indian dishes. It has a spicy and tangy taste. This flavor with tomatoes and rice taste great! This dish will make a nice lunch box food.

1 cup rice

3 chopped tomatoes

1-1/2 of cup chopped tomatoes

3 tablespoon oil

1/4 of Cup

If it moderately hot add mustard seeds.
