Lemon-laced rice

Naranga Choru is very popular all over India. Its mild flavour makes it a good accompaniment to any spicy curry and it makes a change from plain basmati rice. The dish also looks beautiful, with a pale yellow background providing the perfect foil for black mustard seeds, curry leaves and roasted cashew nuts. The cashew nuts add both taste and texture, and the crunch adds an extra dimension to the rice.
