Tomato-Onion rice

I think I mentioned earlier that I am unbelievably lazy. Waking up in the morning to cook rice and curry and some other accompaniment is a little too much for me. So I started experimenting with rice. And here's my recipe for Tomato-Onion rice. Simple, quick and tasty.

This dish tastes equally good if made with leftover rice too.

Ingredients:
Cooked rice : 2 cups
Onion 1 large, thinly sliced
Tomato 1, medium, diced
Curry leaves few
Salt to taste,
Turmeric a pinch,
2-3 green chillies horizontally slit
dhania(corriander) powder to taste.
Oil 1 tbsp

Heat a pan and add the oil to it. Add the curry leaves and green chillies and allow to splutter. Now add the sliced onions. Stir till transparent. Add the diced tomatoes, stir till the tomatoes change color. Now add the turmeric, salt and dhania powder. Stir for 2 minutes or until the mixture seems well cooked. Add the rice to the pan and mix well.Do not stir in too hard or the rice will break. And Voila, that's how fast it is. Hardly takes 15 minutes to cook including the rice.
