Ingredients

• 1 cup long grain rice and 2 cups water
• 1 green bell pepper
• 1/2 cup onion white, chopped
• 1 teaspoon curry powder
• 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 cup peas - fresh or frozen
• 2 fresh green onions cut, for sprinkling over the top when serving - I also use fresh marjoram when it is in my garden

Instructions

• Cook the rice in a Rice Cooker. This makes it all really really easy.
• While the rice is cooking - in a large skillet - saute the chopped white onion and green bell pepper in one tablespoon water until the onion is translucent. About 10 to 15 minutes.
• Stir in the curry powder, salt and pepper.
• Stir on low for 5 minutes.
• Add the cooked rice and frozen peas to the skillet mixture and heat through.
• Serve with the chopped green onions sprinkled over the top.

Notes

IF FREEZING:

Please follow any of the directions defined in my article Food Preparation for the Freezer.

TO PREPARE AFTER FREEZING:

Take out of freezer and put in the refrigerator at least 6 to 8 hours before heating (or the day before). Heat in the microwave for about 3 minutes. Stir halfway through. Check for temperature and serve hot.
