Ingredients:
1 ½ tbsp oil
1 ½ cups short grain rice ( I have used Sona Masoori rice)
1 cup Salsa (Medium) You can use Mild or Hot salsa depending on how spicy you like.
1 cup Vegetable stock
½ cup water
½ cup Peas
Salt to taste
Fresh Lime juice and cilantro
Preheat the oven to 350F
Fry the rice in the oil till the rice becomes milky white. To this, add salsa, Vegetable stock, salt and water. (Add less or more water depending on how you like the rice to be.) Bring the contents to a boil. Cover the pan and bake it in the oven for 20 mts. Add peas and cover the pan again and bake it for another 5 minutes
