    Variety Rice

    Here is a collection of delicious and healthy Variety Rice recipes, or kalanda sadham as we say in Tamil, that truly delight. These "variety rice" recipes are perfect lunch box recipes too. You can find many one-pot recipes made in a stove-top pressure cooker or Instant Pot. Also, some recipes with leftover rice.
    You will also find recipes with other grains like quinoa (quinoa sambar sadham) and millet (millet kootanchoru). I will add more recipes with other grains like steel-cut oats, barley, buckwheat, etc. So stay tuned.
    The recipes have detailed instructions and stepwise pictures, so making any of them is a breeze and a fun, yummy process to enjoy with your family and friends. Come back for more recipes regularly, and do let me know which dish is your favorite on social media! :-)
