  • 2 tbsplemon juice
  • 40 gpeanuts

  • ½ tspturmeric

Allergen information: peanut, mustard. Check product labels.

Substitutions

Method

  1. 1

    Spread the cooked rice in a wide bowl and let it cool.

    The grains look dry and separate.
  2. 2

    Toast the peanuts, then add mustard seeds and turmeric.

    The mustard seeds begin to pop.
  3. 3

    Fold the tempering and lemon juice through the rice.

    The rice is evenly yellow with no wet patches.

What Peaches changed and why

I cool the rice before mixing so every grain stays separate.

Store & reheat

Refrigerate in a covered container for up to 1 day.

Warm until steaming, then add a fresh squeeze of lemon.

Let it cool before closing the lunchbox.
