This recipe is amazing! It does work as a side dish, but I find that it's filling enough to be a main course on it's own. It's quick and ridiculously easy to make.
ingredients:
1 cup uncooked basmati rice
2 1/4 cup water
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground turmeric
1/2 cup dry peanuts
1/2 cup frozen peas, thawed
directions:
1. Mix the rice, water, salt, and turmeric in a pot, and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer 20 minutes.
2. Stir the peas and peanuts into the cooked rice to serve.
That sounds tastey - my dad grew up in India, in the midst of vast fields of peanuts and rice and I ate this as a kid. Scrumptious and Simple.
