Vrat ke chawal, sama ke chawal, or sama rice is most frequently made during Hindu festivals and auspicious periods of the Hindu calendar like Navratri, Ekadashi, Mahashivratri, Jaya Parvati vrat, and Janmashtami as a recipe for fast (vrat or upvas) when people abstain from cereal grains, and also avoid onion and garlic.
The name is misleading, however. Sama rice or samak rice, is not rice, but barnyard millet, a gluten-free, fibre-rich, and nutritious seed. It is a tiny, round, cream-coloured grain (sama seeds or samo seeds), smaller than the rice grain. It tastes similar to broken rice and has a texture like that of semolina (rava) and broken wheat (daliya), or even couscous. When cooked, it does not separate into individual grains like long-grained rice, but tends to clump together like upma. See our samak rice recipe method to see how to keep the grains separate.
Sama rice is known by different names in different parts of India: shyama in Bengali; moraiyo, moraiya, mario, and mordhan in Gujarati; vrat ke chawal, samak ke chawal, samo rice, samai, sanwa, samwa, samvat, swang ke chawal, vari rice, varai, and bhagar in Hindi and other north Indian languages; oodalu in Kannada; kuthiraivolly, kuthiravali, or kuthiraivali in Tamil; udalu in Telugu; and barnyard millet, small millet, and jungle rice in English.
Sama or samak rice (barnyard millet), sabudana (sago), kuttu atta (buckwheat flour), singhare ka atta (chestnut flour), and rajgir atta (amaranth flour) are the most popular non-cereals consumed during fasting days in India.
For non-fasting days, you can add finely chopped seasonal vegetables like carrot, bean, capsicum, pea, cauliflower, or even tomato to samak rice. You can also add sautéed paneer cubes, dried mint leaves, slivers of roasted almonds, raisins, bay leaf, and curry leaves for a different flavour profile and to add texture and crunch to the dish. 2ff7e9595c
