Lemon rice is a popular dish in India specially in South India. This tangy yellow coloured dish is favourite of many. Few prefer this with onion and garlic. But I prefer this recipe without these.
Ingredients
Lemon large size 2
Fresh Green peas 1/2 cup
Cooked rice. 1.5 cups
Turmeric 1/4 tea spoon
Groundnut (peanuts) 1/4 cup (Read Ayurveda Health Benefits of Peanuts or Ground Nut)
Green chilli 2
Finely chopped coriander 1/4 cup
Curry leaves 10 to 15
Mustard half tea spoon
Cumin seeds (Jeera) half tea spoon
Asafetida 1 pinch
Cooking oil 1 table spoon

Spread rice in a large bowl. Keep a kadai or pan on stove. Add oil to it. Add mustard, cumin seeds (jeera) to oil. When they splutter add chopped chillies, curry leaves, ground nut and turmeric. When ground nuts start splitting , add fresh green peas. Mix well and cook by covering for 2 minutes. switch off stove. Pour this tampering on rice. Add salt, lemon juice and finely chopped coriander . Give this a good mix. Serve with curd rice and pickle.
