Lemon Rice with Spinach
I tried this recipe last night and it was really good! I was feeling a bit low in energy and I thought I need some iron! I feel so much better after having this meal :-) I had boiled broccoli sprinkled with toasted sesame oil, tamari sauce and fried chopped garlic and some left over red lentil soup!
225 g basmati rice
450 g spinach
1 lemon
2 tbsp olive oil
2-inch piece ginger root, peeled and grated
1 chilli (I didn't have it so I used chilli flakes, about 1/4 tsp)
2 tsp turmeric
2 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp mustard seeds
1 tsp coriander seeds
Cook rice.
Boil or steam the spinach with water and a little salt for 6 minutes and then drain.
Puree the spinach in a blender and mix with the cooked rice.
Stir in the lemon juice and add salt and pepper to taste.
Heat the oil in frying pan, add the ginger, chilli and spices and sizzle until they split and crackle a little.
Pour over the spinach and rice and serve immediately.
