Key Questions Answered
To make temple prasad-style curd rice, you will need rice, water, ghee, mustard seeds, moong dal, cumin seeds, black peppercorns, ginger, a green chili, curry leaves, fresh curd, boiled and cooled milk, and salt to taste.
To keep curd rice fresh and prevent it from turning sour, let the cooked rice and the tempering cool down completely before mixing them together. Adding boiled and cooled milk little by little along with fresh curd also helps keep it creamy and fresh all day.
You should gently mash the rice with a spoon while it is still hot because it makes the grains soft and ensures the final curd rice becomes creamy. Once the rice cools down, it becomes hard and difficult to mash properly.
