Method

  1. Chop the onion, green pepper and chilli. In a large, deep frying pan or wok, fry these ingredients for a few minutes until they soften.
  2. Add the rice into the pan, followed by the water. Stir the rice, making sure it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan.
  3. You may want to add the water in bit by bit as it gets absorbed. This will make sure you don't use too much water and get soggy rice.
  4. Stir in the turmeric, chilli powder and garam masala (if using). Bring the rice to the boil and add the peas.
  5. Simmer until the rice has absorbed the water and serve.

    Really liked this - I used chicken stock instead of water (you can use veg stock too i guess) - gave it a bit of extra body I think. Brill recipe though, thanks.
