adharas' Lime (or Lemon) Rice

Best recipe EVAH for leftover rice. This is soooo good. And soooo easy to make. And when mujer stayed with me recently, we discovered that this was fantastic middle of the night drunken munchy food.

• 3 handfuls of old, cooked rice - preferably a day old (leftover rice from Chinese food is perfect!)
  
• About 2 TBSP Oil or Ghee
• Small handful of yellow split peas
• 1 green chili (whole)
• 1 TBSP mustard seeds
• 1/8 tsp asafetida (powdery spice available at Indian grocery stores)
• tumeric to taste (1 teaspoon or so)
• Juice from 1-2 limes (or lemon)

Heat oil at medium heat, add mustard seeds and cover pan. Once the mustard seeds are done popping, add the split peas and fry until golden brown. Add the whole green chili (you can cut in half or quarters if you'd like this spicier), the asafetida & salt to taste. Turn off heat and add rice, breaking it up well. Add lime juice and stir in well.

Let it sit of for a couple minutes and taste, adjusting lime & salt as needed.
