Capsicum Coriander Rice

I love creating easy and quick recipes for lunch box and this recipe is definitely one of them. It takes only 30 minutes from chopping to cooking and it has only 2 spices. I made this delicious, fragrant and easy rice with coriander and capsicum but you can certainly add some shredded chicken, egg or prawns to it.

Do give it a try.
