Quick and easy Green Peas Pulao

If you are a fan of rice dishes then there isn't any chance of disliking Green Peas Pulao (rice tossed with boiled/fried green peas). The method I've used is quite easy and quick.

100 gm rice (boiled few hours before cooking)
200 gm boiled/fried green peas
1 tbsp oil
few peppercorns
1 tsp cumin seeds
salt, to taste
few pine nuts/almonds/cashews/peanuts (for garnish)
1 egg (optional, for garnish)

1. Boil the rice in salted water, strain and keep in fridge for 2-3 hours.
2. Boil or stir fry the peas and let them cool for some time.
3. Heat oil in a wok/kadhai and add cumin seeds and peppercorns, wait for few seconds till they start to crackle.
4. Add peas, followed by rice after few seconds, mix gently and add some more salt (if needed)
5. Cover the wok and cook for 3-4 minutes on low flame.
6. Garnish with nuts and egg and serve hot.

Pan Fried Chicken

G'day buddies, hope u guys are well bright eyed bushy tailed :D, well this beautiful thing was my breakfast today, its perfect if u want to shed some weight as white meat is easily digestible and cooks quickly. so here we go..

500 gm boneless chicken (cut into strips or small pieces)
salt (to taste)
few crushed peppercorns
dash of olive oil (enough to coat the pieces, but not much)
dash of lime juice
pinch of turmeric


1. Marinate the chicken with salt, pepper, lime juice, turmeric and olive oil.
2. Heat a non stick frying pan and cook the pieces, keep turning them upside down every 2-3 minutes untill they are cooked.


Pan/Griddle should be enough hot while cooking the chicken, otherwise it will stick and wouldn't give very pleasant look.
To check if the pieces are well cooked, just check them with spoon or fork, if they are firm, means they are cook, raw meat at the core always feels soft.
