Tofu Rice

Hello all my healthy readers. I hope you all are doing great. Today I am going to share with you a very simple healthy recipe. I am not really a Rice person but I somehow like this dish. Using brown rice instead of normal rice puts this recipe in the healthy category. So without further ado, let’s get started.
Ingredients:
1. ½ cup brown rice
2. ½ cup tofu (You can also use low-fat paneer)
3. ½ cup onions
4. 1/3 cup capsicum
5. 1 cup water
6. 1 tsp. oil
7. 2 chilies
8. 3-4 cloves of garlic

10. ¼ tbsp Cumin seeds (jeera)
11. ¼ tbsp kasoori methi (optional)
12. A pinch of cinnamon
13. 1 Bay leaf (Tej patta)
14. 1 Cardamom (badi elaichi)
15. 2-3 Pepper
16. 2-3 Cloves
Procedure:
1. Wash the rice & then cook it with 1 cup water for 10-12 minutes.
2. Grind chilies, garlic & ginger. You can also grind jeera along with it.
3. Soak the tofu in slightly warm water for 5 minutes. Drain the water & leave it to dry.
4. Add ½ tsp. oil in a non-stick pan & roast the tofu until golden brown.
5. Grind the cloves & pepper in mortar-pestle.
6. Add ½ tsp. oil in the pan. Add the chili-garlic-ginger paste.
    
7. Add onions & capsicum & cook it for 5 minutes on medium flame.
