Spiced Chickpea, Babycorn Rice | Rice Recipe
Delicious rice recipe with chickpea and babycorn combination. Seasoned with fresh homemade spice masala.
This simple and delicious rice preparation is the first recipe which I drafted in my hand written cookbook. So its a hearty recipe to me. The masala I used here has a unique taste and that blends with any vegetable combination. I tried cooking with capsicum, brinjal, okra, everything works good.
Serve this rice with a cucumber raita or simply with a spoon of natural yogurt and some chopped fresh coriander/ cilantro, which acts as a perfect foil for the spiciness of the rice.
This colorful, appealing, protein rich rice is a perfect lunch box pack for a filling meal.
