Three seed (sesame, flax and melon) rice


3 Seed Rice

About:

This is a simple rice with roasted and ground powder of three seeds. I used capsicum and peas here.  This spice powder can be prepared ahead and stored in an airtight container and on busy days can be just mixed with rice without any tempering and delish.

Once they are ground, their fatty acids oil may go rancid; therefore, eating them soon after grinding is important.

This is great for packed lunch/ breakfast.

Health Benefits:

Sesame seeds offer a nutty yet delicate are packed with minerals – copper, magnesium and calcium – and tryptophan

Flaxseeds have a very high concentration of omega 3 fatty acids. These fatty acids are anti-inflammatory, important in bone health and a protector of the heart.

Watermelon include the prevention of kidney disorders, high blood pressure, the prevention of cancer, diabetes, heart disease, heat stroke, macular degeneration and impotence.
