Lemon Rice

At times I end up with leftover plain rice. Lemon rice is a good solution for using the leftovers and an elegant addition to other dishes. Persons with a Kapha constitution can replace peanuts with sesame seeds. Pitta constitution: reduce ginger powder or replace it with fennel. 5 minutes preparation.

Ingredients:

1 cup basmati rice already cooked

4 tsp lemon juice

2 tsp turmeric

1 tsp ginger powder

1/4 cup     peanuts

1 tsp mustard seeds

2 tsp coconut oil

2 tsp cumin seeds

Directions:

Stir fry the coconut oil, mustard seeds and peanuts. When golden, add the turmeric, cumin seeds, salt and lemon juice. Stir for 1 minute, add the rice and combine all ingredients well.
