Last week when I was thinking about easy Indian lunch box recipes, I reminded about this peanut rice recipe (Groundnut rice, Verkadalai sadam in Tamil). As Sendhil loves peanuts, I tried this rice without any hesitation. I referred some websites for this verkadalai sadam recipe and came up with my own combination. Its a quick fix recipe for bachelors and working women to make it easily in busy mornings. Even kids would love to take this rice for their lunch box.
Just a papad or vadam is enough to have a box full of this peanut rice. If you have roasted & de skinned peanuts ready in hand, this rice can be prepared very easily and quickly. It comes out flavourful and tasty too. Sendhil liked it very much. It can be made with leftover rice too. Friends, if you are looking for some easy lunch box ideas,do include this recipe.
To get a nice color for this rice, I used Byadgi chilli which is very famous here in Karnataka. It gives a bright red color to the dishes. So I use these chillies for my chutneys, kurma and bisibelebath. If you use normal red chillies, the color of this rice will vary but taste would be the same.
Ok, Lets see how to prepare this peanut rice with step by step photos.
I clicked this picture in a hurry while Sendhil was rushing to his office. So please bear with the clicks.

Hi chitra,
How spicy is byadagi chillies... I mean how many byadagi chillies equals three spice level of regular red chillies
Hi chitra,
How spicy is byadagi chillies. I mean how many byadagi chillies equals a regular red chilly
Byadgi chillies are less spicy. So you can use 5 or 6 for 3 regular spicy chillies.
