Recipe for Tamilnadu style peanut rice recipe, verkadalai sadam, groundnut masala rice, lunch box recipe. Very easy recipe preparation with video.  Peanut rice(verkadalai sadam) is a healthy, delicious & easy Indian lunch box recipes. Peanut Rice is made leftover rice and spicy groundnut masala called the Groundnut masala rice. Total time to make this rice is less than 30 mins. Pack yourself a lunch box to look forward to using up with a fun twist on peanuts. This lunchbox friendly recipe is actually made without garlic.

Peanut rice is such flavorful rice like Peanut Chutney with healthy and nutritious one. Wake up at 5 am and saw some leftover rice in a fridge was thinking to make some lemon rice but thought to post a lunch box menu in the blog so shot this post in the early morning. Peanut(verkkadalai in Tamil) is handy in the fridge so I made Groundnut masala rice.

To Make Groundnut masala rice we need to ground the masala first for that we need Sesame Seeds, Urad dal, Dry red chili is roasted in Groundnut oil(peanut oil). This peanut oil I bought from the mara chekku kadala ennai  from Thanjavur. Seeku ennai the purely grounded oil and it gives extra flavour to the rice. Give a try with sekku kadalai ennai.
