Super easy corn and kale rice:



Each time you plan a party, you keep thinking of different kinds of rice dishes. So, I got one super easy, tasty and with a lot of greens dish for you. I am very fond of kale since it is a super green. But, making your toddler eat greens is a big problem. Since kids love corn, this is one recipe where you can make your kids eat greens too J I have replaced kale with fenugreek too and that works great too.


Ingredients:

2 cups basmati rice washed
1 tsp oil
1 chopped red onion
2/3 cloves
3/4 peppercorns
1 cinnamon stick
1 bay leaf
3/4 garlic cloves finely chopped
1 inch ginger chopped finely
2 cardamom pods
1 cup corn (you can add more)
1 big bunch cut and chopped organic kale
1 cup Water to cook rice
salt as per taste


In a large wok, heat the oil and add cloves, peppercorns, bay leaf, cinnamon stick, cardamom and chopped red onion. Saute well and add chopped garlic and ginger. Once the onion and ginger-garlic is cooked well, you can add the washed rice (remove water). Saute it well and then add corn and chopped kale. Now add water as per the requirement of rice. I usually add 1 cup (i.e half the amount of rice). Add salt as per taste. Cover and cook for about 15 minutes or until rice is well done.

Enjoy with a bowl of soup J
