A Very tasty rice variety made by tossing cooked rice in flavorful and spicy Peanut Powder!
Mostly for Lunch box, its always better to give variety rices instead or Rasam/Kuzhambu/Sambar etc. Rasam/Kuzhambu/Sambar becomes more thick and all the gravy will be absorbed. Thats the reason we prefer to give variety rices like Lemon Rice, Tomato Rice, Coconut Rice etc. Kids will be mostly talking with their friends and have more distraction. So Its always a good choice to pack a rice with stir-fry veggie mixed in the rice itself that way they will surely eat the veggie too. I always keep lemon rice with ladysfinger mixed together or brinjal fry. That way I make sure they don't accidentally spill the veggie or just to miss to take the veggie box (mostly by purpose 🙂 ) .
This Peanut Rice Tastes so good with Baby Potato Fry or even with Ladysfinger Fry. Try making this yummy rice variety for lunch and see how your kid finishes her lunch box fully :-).
