Garnish with grated coconut (optional) and chopped coriander leaves. TIPS: The cooked rice must be cooled to room temperature before use in step 3. This is a great way to use left-over rice. When the microwave cooking time for a step exceeds 2 minutes, it is highly recommended the contents be checked and stirred at regular intervals to avoid burning of food. Standing time is a very important step as it completes the microwave cooking process of a dish. Ideally, allow the dish to stand for about 5 minutes before serving. Serve hot immediately with: Eggplant and Potato Curry (Vagan Bateta nu Shak) or any other curries of your choice. Note: The above recipe is designed for a microwave oven of 800 Watts. Higher wattage microwave ovens will require shorter cooking times. Kindly refer to the manual accompanying your microwave oven for its wattage. IT IS STRONGLY ADVISED THAT ALL THE CARE AND PRECAUTIONS SPECIFIED IN THE OVEN MANUAL BE TAKEN DURING THE MICROWAVE COOKING PROCESS.
