Bisibelabath  is a rice dish which cooked with lentils and its famous of karnataka state..Also can call this as HOT LENTIL RICE means Rice cooked with vegetables and lentils in tamarind juice and ghee..

I like single bowl rice recipes to prepare for lunch..But I should think for my kids mostly..They eat only white along with rasam n curries.Whenever I feel to eat different version of rice,according to vegetables in the fridge prefers to cook any pulav or fried rice..Recently this BISIBELABATH also took place in the list and I like this very much..This recipe needs lots of ghee and before two times I cooked with right amount of ghee and it was simply delicious. but some times have to prefer less ghee for health and this is the result of mine after cooking with less ghee.. and I like both versions too..Even DH also liked this rice n never rejects..I know,this recipe is very familiar to you all.but try with less ghee like me and sure you will love it..Go On...
