Capsicum Sweet Corn Rice

Ingredients:
Rice - 1 cup
Capsicum (large) - 1
Sweet Corn - 1/3 cup
Onion (large) - 1
Green chillies - 2
Finely chopped garlic - 1 tbsp
Cumin seeds - 1/2 tbsp
Turmeric - pinch
Garam Masala - pinch
Cashews - 5-6
Salt - as per taste
Oil - 2-3 tbsp

Procedure:
  1. Cook rice and spread it on a plate until it cools and grains are separated.
  2. Take a kadai, add cumin seeds, chopped garlic, green chillies, cashews and fry them for 1-2 minutes.
  3. Add onion(chopped length wise) and saute until they are transparent. 
  4. Add chopped capsicum and continue cooking for few minutes or until they are half cooked.
  5. Now add sweet corn and fry for few minutes.
  6. Sprinkle some turmeric, salt, garam masala and mix well. 
  7. Finally add boiled rice, mix well and saute under very low flame for 2 minutes. Switch off the flame, stir well and serve hot.
TIP: Do not over cook capsicum, it should be crisp enough. Similarly, do not add too much garam masala, just add a pinch for flavor. Excess masala disturbs the natural taste of capsicum and sweet corn.
