Mixed Rice




Came across this receipe accidently. I had some left over rice without any side dish at home so just tried to mix together a few things at home and the final result was yummy!!! After that day this has kind of become a main dish rather than something made of left over. One masala that i really like and try to always have it in my kitchen is MDH Kitchen King. It is really good and adds a good flavour to any dish.



I am sharing 2 of my dishes that i make using this masala that go well together


Ingredients for Mixed Rice


Basmati rice - 1 cup


carrots - 2


Capsicum - 1 large


Peas a handful


Onion- 1 large


Beans a few


Garlic - 2 cloves


mint leaves a few for garnish


MDH Kitchen King Masala- 2 tbsp(adjust as per taste)


salt


Olive Oil 3 tbsp/ Butter


Jeera -1 tsp





Method


Wash the rice, drain all the water and keep aside. Cut all the vegetables Lengthwise. Boil 2 cups of water. Take oil in a pan. Add Jeera and onions and fry till onions are brown. Add capsicum and garlic and fry some more, now add the remaining vegetables and cook for a minute. Add rice, salt,masala and mix well. Add the warm water and chopped mint leaves and cover and let it cook in medium heat.



When done serve hot with raitha or chips

  2. Hey even I tried this one. It came out pretty well actually. I probably added too much masala the first time, my roomies were almost in tears...second time was good. Thanks for the recipe.
