Instructions
If using canned black beans, rinse and well drain the black beans and use 1 cup for this recipe. Skip the next 2 steps.
Drain and pressure cook the soaked black beans with water on medium heat. The amount of water needed is the double amount of the beans( 2/3 cups of water used in this recipe).
After 2 whistles, lower the heat and let it cook for another 10 minutes. Turn off the gas and let it cool.
Drain the cooked black beans into a colander and take it out in a separate bowl. Keep it aside.
Place a small to medium pot on the stove and fill it with just enough water. Bring the water to a rolling boil.Add the frozen corn. This method works with both corn on the cob and loose corn.
Loose corn should be done in no more than three to five minutes. Corn on the cob can take up to five to seven minutes.
Drain the corn into a colander and take it out in a separate bowl. Keep it aside.
Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the mustard seeds and the cumin seeds.
When the seeds splutter, add the ginger and green chillies.
Stir for 2 minutes and then add the curry leafs or curry leaf powder.Stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the corns. Stir at medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes.
Add the black beans and chopped spinach and stir fry at medium-high heat for 5-6 minutes, till there is no excess moisture. Season with turmeric and salt, to taste.
Add the cooked rice, stirring well, and incorporate the corn, spinach and beans. Reduce heat to low and let cook for 10 minutes until the mix is hot.
Turn off the gas. Add the lemon juice and toss 1 minute to allow the rice to absorb the lemon flavor.
Cover and let it rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Serve it hot as it is or as a burrito rice bowl.
