Enter teeki chawal

Got bored of same old food? Try this recipe..I found out about it from a friend of mine and made a few modifications of my own.

Here's what you need:
  1. Cooked rice
  2. Oil (obviously)
  3. Mirchi powder, jeera, salt, chopped onions, semi boiled and cut potato (one will do)
  4. Crushed tomatoes, c, carrots, beans, green peas, corn
Here's how you proceed:
  1. Heat a pan with lots of oil..
  2. Put jeera (one handful, needs to be more)
  3. Put onions and fry em' all at med flame
  4. Once onions are semi fried, put capsicum, potatoes and cook for like 7 mins
  5. Put remaining veggies and cook for another 7 mins.
  6. Add mirchi powder, and any other spices you fancy (Dhaniya powder, Hing, Garam masala will also do)
  7. Let it cook for another 5 mins..(At any point, if you notice that the veggies are burning, add a little bit of crushed tomato puree)
  8. Add 40% of the crushed tomatoes from the can.
  9. Cook for 10 mins.
  10. Now, taste the mixture, it should be slightly spicier, if not, add more spices. Also, at this point you should notice oil separating from the mixture
  11. Add cooked rice (cold one preferably), and stir for 3-5 mins..
That's it..enjoy your meal :)
