Rice is usually a no-no for diabetics because it causes a quick rise in blood sugar levels. To counter the effect of high glycemic index white rice, replace it with high fibre brown rice and toss in some fibre-rich vegetables along with diabetic-friendly ingredients like garlic and fenugreek to create a hearty rice delicacy which is best enjoyed in moderation.
Heat the oil in a pressure cooker, add the green chillies, ginger, garlic, and onions and sauté on a medium flame for 2 minutes.
Add the fenugreek leaves, mushrooms, tomatoes, brinjals, surti papadi seeds,and chilli powder, mix well and cook on a medium flame for 1 to 2 minutes, while stirring occasionally.
Add the brown rice, 2¼ cups of hot water and salt, mix well and pressure cook for 4 whistles.
