Ingredients

1 cup uncooked brown rice
2 medium size green bell peppers
or
1 green and 1 sweet pepper ( Red / Orange) chopped fairly small
1 Jalapeno chilli or the amount to suit your taste
1 medium onion finely chopped
Cilantro (I like a lot of it)
1/4 tsp of jeera
Salt and pepper to taste
1 Tbsp. olive or canola oil
3 Tbsps shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Method

Cook and set aside the brown rice with 1/2 tsp of salt according to the instructions on the package.

Heat the oil in a heavy bottomed pan and toss in the jeera.

Once it changes color, add the onions and chopped jalapeno chillies and saute for about 3 to 5 mins.

Add the chopped bell peppers and continue to saute. The veggies should not be too soft.

The flavor is best when the peppers are still a bit crisp.

Season with salt and pepper and add the chopped cilantro.

Toss this mixture with the cooked rice and shredded cheese while still warm and serve immediately.

Serves 2 as a main course.
