Peas Fried Rice.

This is a very quick and easy dish. This is something which i would prefer doing it for lunch to office. It tastes good and takes the minimum time :) It would also serve as a good dish when you prepare a whole menu for a grand dinner or lunch party.

Lets see what are the ingredients:

1. Onion meidum sided - 2 thinly sliced.
2. Garlic - 12-14 cloves.
3. Green Chillies - 4
5. Bay leaf - 1
6. Oil - 5tbsp
7. Peas - 1/2 cup
8. Rice - 1 cup
9. Water - 125ml
10.Salt to taste.
11. Coconut milk - 100 ml

Preparation of Coconut milk: This is something which most of them know. In case if you are new to cooking, then this might help you. Grind half a grated coconut with a glass water. Then filter the liquid and remove the coconut. Use only the coconut milk.

Preparation of peas rice:

Heat oil in a pressure cooker. Saute the bay leaf, when it turns brown add the onion, garlic and green chillies and cook till the onion and garlic are half brown. Add the peas and cook for another minute. Add rice and cook for a minute. Now add the coconut milk and water. Both together should be in 1:225 ml ratio with rice.

Add salt to your taste and close the pressure cooker. Cook for one whistle and simmer it for 5 minutes then. Remove from heat.

Serve hot with pomogranite salad! The color of the rice is also exciting for kids white with green balls :)

It would taste yummy! It will be everyone's favourite soon in your house as well :)

Try it out and leave me your commnets.
