Green Peas Rice w/Fenugreek

Enjoy this fragrant rice with green peas, tofu, fenugreek, & crispy onions. Mouthwatering & healthy w/powerful anti-cancer ingredients.

​If you wanted to get on fenugreek bandwagon, then this recipe is perfect for YOU! Yes! It is easy, simple and quick - making it perfect for a weekday or well, just about any time when you are in the lazy mood but want to eat something very healthy and tasty.

I have talked a LOT about the amazing health benefits of fenugreek in THIS ARTICLE. 

You can check it out later but just know that if there is one spice you must add to your health regimen, then it is fenugreek. Far superior (and I REALLY mean...FAR...as in, F-A-R) than turmeric, this one spice alone can help balance your hormones, prevent cancer, balance your blood sugar, thicken your hair and beautify your skin, plus much more! Like I said, do take the time to read the article later - for any ques. or comments related to the article, please post there only - NOT on this recipe page. 

OK. So, here is the recipe -


Ingredients -

1. Organic yellow or red onions - 2 medium or large
2. Organic green peas - As much as you want or about 1 full cup
3. Organic basmati rice - About 10 oz. 
4. Organic firm tofu - 1 whole brick


Spices, Seeds & Oils -

1. Organic coconut oil - 3 Tablespoons
2. Organic mustard oil - 3 Tablespoons
3. Fenugreek seeds powder - 1 Teaspoon
4. Turmeric - 1 Teaspoon
5. Black pepper - 2 Tablespoon
6. Paprika or Cayenne - Per taste or 1 Teaspoon
7. Dried oregano - 1 Teaspoon
8. Thyme - 1 Teaspoon
9. Garam masala - 1 Teaspoon
10. Organic cumin seeds - 4 Tablespoon
11. Whole mace - 1 whole
12. Whole black cardamom - 3 whole
13. Biryani masala - 2 Teaspoons
14. Indian black salt (kala namak) - 1 Teaspoon
15. Himalayan sea salt - 1 Teaspoon (adjust accordingly to your taste)


Simple steps -

1. Watch the video for the full recipe steps. 

For those with SUGAR issues:-

If you have sugar issues, you can still enjoy this recipe with 2 very simple, easy options!

1. REDUCE the quantity of rice and add some quinoa. So, you can do, say, 30% rice to 70% quinoa.

2. OR, you can eliminate rice completely - make the recipe as is, and mix in quinoa instead of rice.

3. And remember, to add some Ceylon cinnamon as well as bay leaves powder, to your food when cooking AND when ready to eat.
 The fenugreek in this recipe is a great blood sugar balancing spice!

In the video, I didn’t see you add garlic and green chilis… should I? …and in the recipe here, there is no salt… just FYI…

Oh God!! I don't know why I have become forgetfull! LOL. The green chilies and garlic were part of the previous recipe (and not the updated one) so I will remove those lines...Yes, you can add it but be mindful of the spice level.

Thanks for pointing out about the salt - will correct it shortly. And you know what?! For the FIRST time, I forgot to take pics of the recipe - as I was making it! I couldn't believe it when it suddenly popped up in my head that I have not taken any pics of the process..lol.

Then, I also forgot to add the salt! LOL. Hmm....mind too occupied. For salt - I would say you add 1 teaspoon of kala namak and 1 teaspoon of sea salt...for this size of the recipe. -Somya.

Just saw this - you go Pamela! This will come out so good now that you have all the original ingredients! Can't wait for you to try this with black cardamom and whole mace. BTW, add black cardamom to your lentils, rice, curries, veggies and also mace...and you will love the taste of both plus too many health benefits of both..:) Enjoy! And thanks always foe leaving the comments..:) -Somyata
