Rice with Black-eyed peas



















I recently saw a cup of boiled black-eyed peas in the refrigerator and thought maybe I could make some kind of rice with it and what followed was this creation which was absolutely tasty.

Ingredients:
Rice - 1 Cup Cooked
Black eyed peas - 1/2 cup cooked
Onion - 1, chopped
Carrot - 1 medium, peeled and chopped
Fresh Coconut - 2 tbsp
Lime juice - 1 tbsp
Oil- 1 tbsp
Mustard Seeds - 1 tsp
Jeera Seed - 1 tsp
Turmeric - 1/2 tsp
Green Chilies - 2, chopped finely
salt - to taste

Method:
Heat oil in a kadai, when hot enough, add mustard seeds, cumin seeds, green chillies, turmeric and then add onions, fry till the onions get light golden in color. Now add carrots and cook till the carrots get a little soft. Add cooked rice, black eyed peas, salt, lemon juice, fresh coconut, mix well and serve hot with any chutney or pickle.
