Life is too hectic on a Working Day, that too if you need to pack 3 lunchboxes(including Breakfast!!!!!!!!!!) :)))). I need to pack for my Hubby, Brother and My Little Boss. Preparing Lunchbox Menu is a tough task. Quick Recipes comes handy in these times.
Minty Peas Rice is a Quick Recipe. It takes hardly 15-20 minutes to make it.

Fresh/Frozed peas - 1 cup
Ginger-Garlic Paste - 1 tsp
Coriander powder - ½ tsp
