INSTRUCTIONS

Here are a couple of  favorite rice recipes that i use for packed lunches.
They work really well with leftover cooked rice, or rice sticks.  When rice
sticks are used, break the sticks up into small pieces before boiling.
Drain as much of the water as possible.
I'm aware that some of the spices may be available in Indian food stores
only, but i think it is worth the trip :-). You can also experiment with
adding a variety of nuts, raisins....
Fry all ingredients in the oil. Add rice/rice sticks and salt. Stir well.
