Cook the rice and keep it ready ( I used Basmati rice.I added twice the quantity of water and ½ tsp of salt and waited for 1 whistle in the cooker. After the whistle immediately remove the cooker from the stove. Once the steam goes remove the lid and keep the cooker open and allow rice to cool)
Squeeze lemon and keep the lemon juice ready
Heat oil in a pan and splutter mustard seeds
Add urad dal, chana dal and peanuts and fry till it becomes crisp
