Just dive in, mix everything up, and use your thumb to push the rice into your mouth. Don't use your left hand tho!
As someone who grew up eating this way, I'd say just practice mixing the rice and curry with your fingers, then use your thumb as a push tool. It feels natural after a bit!
Start by washing your hands thoroughly! Then, mix the rice with your chosen curry or sauce using your fingers. Form a small ball of rice with your fingers and push it into your mouth using your thumb. Enjoy!
