Spicy Tamarind Rice
- 3/4 cup rice
- orange lentils Handful of yellow/
- 1 tablespoon tamarind paste
- 1 green chilli large
- 1 cup veggies assorted, I used capsicum, spring onion and cabbage<
- 1/2 teaspoon tumeric powder
- lime
- Cook the rice and lentils along with the tumeric powder in 2.5-3 cups of water for 15-20 minutes.
- Slice the chilli horizontally and then chop it up into large chunky pieces. (Remove seeds if you want less heat)
- Once the rice pot comes to a boil, add the chilli and the tamarind paste. Mix well.
- Turn off the heat when there is still some liquid left in the pan. The rice will continue to cook and will absorb the remaining water even without the heat.
- Let the rice cool down for 5-10 minutes.
- Chop up some veggies and add to the rice. Mix well, add the lime juice, and serve immediately.
