Quick rice fix





Want to make something different and light for dinner. Then try this quick rice fix, which tastes like vegetable pulao.

This rice can be prepared with any rice, but using long rice or basmati rice gives it extra flavour and taste.

Ingredients:
Cooked basmati rice -2cups
Garam masala powder -2tsps
Turmeric powder -1/2tsp
Blanched vegetables -1cup
(Blanched vegetables can include, green peas, carrot and cauliflower)
Onion -2
Capsicum -1/2(finely chopped)
Cashew -1/4 cup
Oil and salt -as required

Method:
Chop one onion finely and another one length wise. Fry the latter till it turns brown. Fry the cashew nuts also. Keep it aside. In a frying pan, fry the finely chopped onions for few minutes. Then add the garam masala powder, turmeric powder and salt. Fry for few seconds. Next add the cooked rice, blanched vegetables and capsicum. Sauté everything. Garnish with browned onions and cashew nuts.



Serve it with green chutney and grilled cottage cheese.
