Carrot Rice

I experimented with this rice since I was out of groceries and to my surprise,it came out quite well.It literally takes 5 minutes to make.

Ingredients:

Rice-1.5 cups cooked
Carrots- A handful,grated
Onion-1 small sliced thin
Cumin seeds- 1 tsp
Ginger- A small piece grated along with the carrots
Green chillies-2 or 3 sliced
Pepper powder-1 tsp
Curry leaves-A few
Cashew nuts- Few for garnish
Cilantro-For garnish

Procedure:

1.In a pan with some oil, add cumin seeds, curry leaves, green chillies,cashew nuts and onions and saute well till golden brown.
2.Add the grated carrots and ginger and saute till raw smell goes away. Add pepper powder and salt and add the cooked rice and mix well and fry for a minute or two.
3.Switch off the stove and garnish with cilantro.

Optional: You can try peanuts instead of cashewnuts. You can also add green peas if you need some color. Turmeric Powder is not needed since the carrots give a nice color to the rice.
