1. Wash rice thoroughly and cook rice 95%. This is our main ingredient so do not over cook it till it becomes soggy. For best results just boil it in 2.5 cups water and add 1 table spoon of oil and 1 teaspoon of salt so it doesn’t get sticky. (Optional : You can add 1 clove and 1 small cinnamon stick if you like its flavor or you can skip it. I did not use it personally so haven’t added them in the ingredients above.)

2. Divide cooked rice in 3 equal parts. And now its time to flavor it.

3. Green section of rice – Make puree of spinach and cilantro mix. Heat non stick pan, add 1 tablespoon of butter, add cumin, add chopped onion and garlic and saute until the onions become translucent. Add all spices for green gravy and spinach/cilantro puree and let it cook for 2 mins. Let it cool down to room temperature and add rice to it and mix it. Green rice is ready.

4. Orange section of rice – Make puree of tomato / carrots. Heat non stick pan, add 1 tablespoon of butter. Add all spices for orange gravy and tomato/carrot puree and let it cook for 2 mins. Let it cool down to room temperature and add rice to it and mix it. Orange rice is ready.

5. Take shallow bowl and brush it with butter a little bit. Place orange rice first in the bowl, add white rice and add green rice. Tap each layer with a spoon and carefully flip bowl on a serving plate. Tricolor tower is ready!

6. Take bread slices and toast it. Make three equal layers with cilantro, sour cream and bell pepper.

Serve it for holiday lunch or dinner with a smile and I’m sure your family and friends are going to love it.
