Capsicum Masala Rice

This a minor variation of vahchef's capsicum masala rice. In my version, i add pepper and lemon juice as well.

Ingredients:
1 cup rice - cook it and keep it aside
3 big capsicums
1 spoon garam masala

Dry Roast:
handful coriander seeds (add generously)
3 spoons jeera seeds
3 red chillies
1 spoon mustard seeds
1 spoon curry leaf powder (if you dont have fresh curry leaves)
3 spoons urad dal
Handful of peanuts

Method:
2. Heat 1 spoon oil + 1 spoon ghee in a deep bottomed pan.
3. Add diced capsicum. You may cover and cook for sometime. But ensure that the veggies dont get soggy and stay crisp.
4. Grind the dry roasted mix.
5. Add the mix to the veggies.
6. Add garam masala powder and a dash of pepper.Mix til everything is well blended.
6. Add lime after taking the pan off the heat.
