    I don’t know what it is; but I love spinach, I love soy sauce, and I love chilli. So it looks like I’m off to look for a recipe.

    Unless you have one you’d like to share?

      Sure, it was extremely non-traditional so I’ll fess up to that. It’s no-oil and lazy:

      Soak half cup (huskless, split) moong dal and half cup rice in water for a little bit. Or if you are too lazy to get the moong dal from the basement grab the red lentils (masoor dal) from the cabinet and use those!

      Chop up a couple tomatoes. Or frozen dehydrated tomatoes from the freezer 🤷‍♀️ Put those bad boys in the electric pressure cooker.

      Add 1 tsp turmeric, 1 tsp ground cumin and 1 tsp ground coriander. The recipe I was adapting from had coriander seeds and cumin seeds but no grinding step and honestly I regret using whole coriander seeds so instead I am recommending ground in a smaller volume. Add some salt.

      Rinse and drain the lenil/rice mix. Dump in pressure cooker. Add 4 cups water. Cook on low pressure for 15 mins, release pressure when done.

      This presentation is reheated, so I just tossed from frozen spinach in when I microwaved it. I added some water too, because it thickens up. There wasn’t nearly enough salt in the batch I made so I added soy sauce and of course my favorite chili/tomato/garlic commercially prepared condiment.

      Breakfast of champions!
