Combine the cooled rice with boiled cooled water in a clean covered container.
For a lightly fermented version, refrigerate for 8 hours; do not leave cooked rice warm at room temperature.
Stir in yogurt, ginger and salt until the soaking liquid becomes creamy.
Bloom mustard seeds, curry leaves and green chillies in hot oil and pour the tempering over the rice.
Mix gently and serve chilled with the chosen side dishes.
Serve cold with roasted vegetables, fried fish, badi chura or a simple potato fry.
