Place a strainer over a bowl, add the kolum rice, and wash it 2–3 times until the water runs clear. Once washed, soak it in fresh water and keep it aside. I would recommend not using basmati for this preparation, use any short or medium grain rice for best results. Meanwhile, prepare all the vegetables. Break the cauliflower into small florets. Wash the ivy gourd, trim the top and bottom, and cut it into quarters. Cut the potato into dices. Rinse all the chopped vegetables lightly in water and keep them ready. Now make the spice mix. Add cinnamon, black peppercorns, and cloves to a mixer grinder and grind into a coarse powder. Next, in a mortar and pestle, crush ginger and green chilli into a coarse paste. Heat a wide vessel on medium-high flame. Add oil and let it heat up. Add cumin seeds, mustard seeds, hing, and bay leaves and let them crackle. Add all the prepared vegetables along with green peas. Add the ginger-green chilli paste and the coarse spice powder. Mix everything well and cook for a minute. Now add curry leaves, cashews, turmeric powder, goda masala, and salt. Mix well and cook on medium-high to high flame for 2–3 minutes. Cover the vessel and cook on low flame for 2–3 minutes so the vegetables steam slightly. After 2 minutes, open the lid and give it a quick stir. Add hot water and jaggery, and stir well until the jaggery dissolves completely. Taste the water at this stage and adjust salt if required. Increase the flame to high and bring everything to a proper boil. Tie a clean cloth around the lid and keep it ready. Now drain the soaked rice and add it to the boiling water. Stir gently once and bring it back to a boil. Cover and cook on low flame for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, open the lid and check the bottom using the back of a spoon. If there is still water left, cover again and cook for a couple more minutes until it gets absorbed. Once done, switch off the flame and let the masale bhat rest for 15 minutes before serving. Maharashtrian Masale Bhat is ready to be served. While serving, fluff up the rice gently using a spatula and add fresh coriander, grated fresh coconut and some more ghee. #YFL #SanjyotKeer #masalebhat Follow Your Food Lab on: https://www.instagram.com/yourfoodlab/ https://www.facebook.com/yourfoodlab/ Follow my personal handles here: (Chef Sanjyot Keer) https://www.instagram.com/sanjyotkeer/ https://www.facebook.com/sanjyotkeerofficial/ https://x.com/sanjyotkeer The Music I use in All my videos - https://bit.ly/3CdPbSc (Best for independent creators) Intro 0:00 Washing & Soaking Rice 1:12 Vegetable Prep 1:54 Spice Mix 4:20 Ginger & Green Chilli Paste 4:45 Cooking Process 4:55 How to check the rice 9:08 Final Process & Resting 9:30 Plating 10:37 Outro 12:38
