Chef Quince' Lemon Rice

This recipe is dedicated to my dearest friend Vyn.. It's so simple and delicious - done in 5 mins!


Ingredients:
Rice (1 cup) - Par boiled
Mustard seeds (1 tsp)
Chillies (2 green - small and spicy) - chopped
Curry leaves (1 twig)
Turmeric (1/2 tsp)
Lemon ( 1 big) (extract juice)
Ginger (1/2") - long strips
Oil (1 tbsp)
Salt to taste

Method:

Now that you have all your ingredients ready we are now ready go.. Heat oil in a deep wok once the oil is nice and hot add the mustard seeds and let it splutter. When the spluttering has stopped add the curry leaves, green chillies and ginger strips and saute for a while..it may get dark brown in color but that's ok. Add your turmeric and stir dont let it burn lower the heat if need be... or just take it off the burner. Now very slowly pour in the lemon juice and mix for about half a minute.

It's now time to add the parboiled rice to the mixture, with every spoon of rice you add make sure you stir it well so that is incorporates nicely into the mixture. Finally add salt as per your liking...

Hope you enjoy this quick and easy recipe which can be eaten with absolutely anything on the side..be it chicken ... beef...or shrimps...

Bon Appetit
