This tomato rice recipe has been with me since childhood when my mom used to make it. She makes it without any masalas, and she still uses the same method😍 This is so simple to make as well as sooo delicious. I have tried to blog this recipe for a while now, but I never got the chance. I made it a little spicy, but you can adjust the spice level as needed. It’s very quick so it takes less time😋

I have made little spicy by adding more green chillies and adjust spice level as needed.
Garlic can be added too.
I used regular sona masoori rice, basmati rice can be used instead regular rice.
Cook rice and allow to cool down completely then mix it in the gravy. Mixing hot rice will result mushy tomato rice.
