Brown Rice Salad with Bell Peppers & Sprouts

         
         
          A healthy alternative to white rice, brown rice contains all the fibre needed, has less cholesterol and is good for diabetics. It is best served at room temperature. Any leftover rice too, can be used for this recipe. A great meal for those who desire to shed some weight. Add some mustard sauce for that extra zing to the dish. Enjoy this wholesome salad accompanied with some grilled delicacy.





  • 1/4 cup brown rice, soaked for 30 minutes
  • 1/2 cup red, yellow and green capsicum, sliced finely
  • 1/2 cup sprouts, steamed
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 1-2 green chilies, chopped
  • salt to taste
  • 1 tsp. lemon juice
  • pepper powder to taste
  • 2 tsp. olive oil
  • fresh coriander leaves to garnish
  • 1 tsp. cheese, grated (opt) for garnishing.







          Pressure cook the rice with plenty of water for 3 whistles. Let it stand for 15 minutes. Drain and keep aside. 

           Mix with all the other ingredients and serve, garnished with coriander leaves and grated cheese (opt).
