Brown Rice and Bell Pepper Pulao

 

Ingredients

1 cup uncooked brown rice 2 medium size green bell peppers or 1 green

and 1 sweet pepper ( Red / Orange) chopped fairly small 1 Jalapeno

chilli or the amount to suit your taste 1 medium onion finely chopped

Cilantro (I like a lot of it) 1/4 tsp of jeera Salt and pepper to taste

1 Tbsp. olive or canola oil 3 Tbsps shredded sharp cheddar cheese

 

Method

Cook and set aside the brown rice with 1/2 tsp of salt according to the

instructions on the package.

Heat the oil in a heavy bottomed pan and toss in the jeera.

Once it changes color, add the onions and chopped jalapeno chillies and

saute for about 3 to 5 mins.

Add the chopped bell peppers and continue to saute. The veggies should

not be too soft.

The flavor is best when the peppers are still a bit crisp.

Season with salt and pepper and add the chopped cilantro.

Toss this mixture with the cooked rice and shredded cheese while still

warm and serve immediately.

Serves 2 as a main course.
