Tomato rice (Lunch box idea for kids)

Hi
   It is been hardly two days since my kid left to playschool, and now she has a runny nose :(  seems that some of her friends have so,  in  such case, many kids prefer to stay light and dont eat much.  So, we must choose their diet accordingly, here i used tomato(vitamin c  to develop resistance), garlic (antioxidant), jeera and peppercorn(which are usually suggested as an cure to cold, cough) to make this rice, and my home was completely flavoured by this rice.  Since i had specially prepared for my kid (with preference to cold), my husband also pretended to have cold, just to have a spoonful of rice  :)  such was the flavour and taste

     GUYS, do give a try , it came out really well .. and back to recipe

Ingredients required

4-5 tomatos paste(cooked on kadai till get mushy and grind the mixture), 10-12 garlic pods, few coriander leaves,  1 tsp jeera- 1/2 tsp peppercorn roughly ground in mortar and pestle, one cup cooked rice
