Ingredients

• 1 bunch - Spinach
• 1 bunch - Coriander leaves
• Green chillies (varies upon the taste and spice that one desires)
• 1 - Onion (finely chopped)
• 2 - Carrot (Grated)
• 1 cup - Peas (Either fresh peas soaked/boiled or frozen peas will do)
• 3 cups - Basmati rice
• Salt (Varies upon the quantity and taste)

How to Make Easy Spinach rice

• Cook the basmati rice and cool it (put a tbsp of oil while rice is cooking to avoid the rice from sticking to each other and also to avoid sticking to the bottom of the rice cooker).
• While you are cooling the rice, add a tsp of ghee to it.
• Cook the spinach with very little water.
• Grind the coriander leaves and green chillies (adding very little water).
• Heat oil in a pan and fry the chopped onions till they turn brown.
• Pour the coriander/green chillies paste along with green peas into the pan. Boil it until the raw smell of the green chillies and coriander leaves disappear.
• Grind the cooked spinach into a fine paste and add it to the boiling coriander/green chilli paste along with the desired amount of salt.
• Add the grated carrot and let it boil for few minutes.
• Turn off the stove and mix it with the cooled rice.
• The remaining paste can be stored in the fridge and can be used later. This rice goes well with onion raitha.
