First, cook the rice. Cut the whole dried red chilies into small pieces.

To make Hing Jeera Rice, heat oil or ghee in a skillet. Add the cumin seeds and red chilies, and let them sizzle. Add a pinch of asafoetida, then add the cooked rice. Add salt to taste and stir-fry for a few minutes.

Hing Jeera Rice is ready. Serve on a plate. (You can also add chopped cilantro if you like.) This dish is very tasty.
