Robust tomato flavor is key to tomato rice, a popular southern Indian dish typically prepared when there is an abundance of ripe, red tomatoes and leftover basmati rice. It’s a versatile but intensely savory dish that can be eaten as a light meal with a dollop of yogurt or paired with seafood, poultry or even a simple fried egg.
