Colors of Taste - Powders: Flavored Rice

So now that we are in a groove I thought we can jazz up the event a little bit ... so here's how it goes for the month of April - we will be spitting the event into two 15 days fast track events with a gap of one week in between.

The first 15 days we will keep with the theme but limit your options to only recipes from India and the next 15 days we will still stick to our theme but with with an International twist. Only recipes that are not from India will be accepted for this part.

The theme for this month's event is .....

Flavored Rice 

So you guys get to submit a flavored rice recipe for the first fifteen days with emphasis on the spices and masala that went into making it a wonderfully delicious, aromatic dish - can be a simple tamarind rice or an exotic Biryani ... then you get to take a break and whip up a recipe you have been thinking of making but have always held back , or maybe you make regularly that everyone at home just loves.... which as long as it comes from shores far away and emphasizes that special blend of spices other than just salt and pepper, you are good to go... maybe Thai, or Moroccan or Lebanese...well you have the world to choose from... :)

So ladies and gents ... get started ... I am so looking forward to all the recipes that I hope flood in :), and I hope you won't limit yourself to just one kind of recipe but would explore and submit for both parts of the event; which I think is the spirit with which we all participate in these events!!

This theme for the event runs from Mar 28th - May 7th. 

The First part of the Theme (Flavored Rice From India): March 28th - April 15th 

The Second part of the Theme (Flavored Rice From the rest of the world): April 23rd - May 7th
