Garlic: 1 whole bulb (peeled)
Red Chili Powder: As per taste

Take the peeled garlic cloves in a mortar and pestle.
Add red chili powder and salt. Pound them together slightly.
Add one teaspoon of oil to the mixture and pound it into a coarse paste.
2. Mixing the Rice

Add the prepared garlic-chili paste to the rice and mix thoroughly until every grain is coated.
3. The Tempering (Tadka)
Heat oil (or ghee) in a pan.
Add mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Once they splutter, add curry leaves, hing, and green chilies.

Add the masala-mixed rice to the pan.
Add a pinch of turmeric for a vibrant color.
Sauté on medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly.
