1 c Diced celery
1 ts Asafetida

1/4 ts Chili seeds
1 ts Cumin seeds
1 ts Garam masala
3 c Long grain brown rice

Saute first 3 ingredients together till celery and/or onion turns
translucent. Add the next 4 ingredients and fry till spices begin to
turn brown and you can smell them in the air. Add the rice and
stir-fry till it begins to turn golden brown. Then add the next 3
ingredients, mix well with spoon and bring to a boil. Cover and turn
heat down to medium-low so it maintains a gentle roiling boil for 10
