Pudina Rice I make whenever there is boredom to make anything which requires long preparations.This is a rice variety and a lunch box option too which is apt for the busy mornings.Normally rice is made daily at home with any gravy such as sambhar or rasam, but sometimes to break the boredom I make this. Pudina or mint is one flavourful leaf and enhances the taste of rice.As I was thinking what to make for lunch this suddenly cropped up mind and I thought since it is not in my blog, clicked the pictures as well. So scroll down for an easy recipe of Pudina Rice..
