Today I tried the rice and green peas with peanut butter as Kandase in mylot had hinted and it tasted good. In India we call in the coconut milk poloa. We put carrots, beans and green peas along with rice and cook the ingredients in coconut milk. I did spread some peanut butter over it. Along with that rice I had the chilli, honey cauliflower and potato pakora raita.
I had prepared some masala kulcha for breakfast and I prepared the potato pakoras from the leftover smashed potatoes with spices.
I haven't digested my lunch yet and therefore didn't take anything in the evening. I still have a masala kulcha left which I shall have for dinner with some dhania( coriander leaves) chutney.

@rakski What do you add to your dishes, black pepper or red chilly? I rarely use red chilly. I use green chilly.

The cauliflower was spicy but not the rice and peas and the raita.

@aninditasen Not in Florida, but when we go to our house up north, there are more Indian restaurants that we can go to.

Your dish sounds delicious. Rice with peanut butter should be a good combination. I love the Chinese glutinous rice balls with peanut butter as fillings.

That's lovely. That's a new dish to me. Are the rice balls prepared from rice powder?

That's a kind of fried rice which we get in restaurants in India. I use clarified butter.

I too like polao but I make it occasionally as our Indian polao is quite heavy.
