It's a nutirious recipe but didnt enjoy cooking; thought the recipe photograped would be great if provided; atleast would give an idea of its appearance after being baked; another quick method of making such a rice would be sauteing onions, crushed corn, spinach,chilli, rice n finally adding milk n cream before serving.
