Curried Tomato Peanut Rice - Tomato Rice Recipe
Curried Tomato Peanut Rice – Tomato Rice Recipe is a delicious one pot, quick recipe that is a favorite with the entire family including kids.

Have you already made plans for this weekend or want to take it easy …. at least that’s what I’m doing.

I mean ever since Thanksgiving, there has been so many festivities/parties and go to events that I’m seriously so looking forward to tucking in with some cozy comfort food.

And watch tons of TV or maybe that’s also too much….just catching up on sleep and read book – Sound’s like a plan, Right?

When I say ‘cozy – comfort-food – tucking in’ there’s ONLY one recipe that comes to my mind Curried Tomato Peanut Rice  !!

Curried Tomato Peanut Rice – Tomato Rice Ingredients

  • 2 Cups Cooked White Rice
  • 4 Tbsp Tomato Chutney
  • 4 Tbsp Roasted Peanuts
  • 1 Tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 Green Chili – thinly sliced
  • Few Sprigs Cilantro – chopped – for decoration

Spices:

  • 1 Tsp Curry Powder
  • 1 Tsp Salt – use as per taste
  • 1 Tsp Chili Powder – use as per taste

Curried Tomato Peanut Rice
It’s seriously is so easy to make and most of the ingredients are already there in your kitchen pantry.

Just saute and mix everything together for 10-15 minutes and you are ready with this ‘Gorgeous Red-Orange Rice Dish’ that takes you to a comfort-zone in every bite.

To make it even more simple, I’m using a readymade Tomato Chutney or Tomato Pickle to cook the entire dish hence there is no chopping/grinding process involved.

The chutney I’m using is slightly sweet-spicy in flavor, however if you like a more savory flavor, you can use the chutney or pickle accordingly.

How to Make Tomato Rice Recipe

 

Heat oil in a non-stick pan and add the tomato chutney.

Saute on medium heat for 2 minutes.

Add peanuts, spices, green chili and saute for 2 more minutes.

Now, add cooked rice, saute and cook covered for 2-3 minutes over low heat. (this helps the rice absorb all the flavors).

Remove the cover, saute lightly and let cook for another 2 minutes.

Switch off the heat.

Transfer to a serving dish, sprinkle with chopped cilantro and serve hot.

 

 

I made a big batch of this Tomato Rice Recipe to last me at least 2 meals (that sure is a Lazy Alert) over the weekend.

And even while making and clicking pictures to share with you’ll hear, I’ve already nibbled on some of it 😉
