Steps

1

Chop tomatoes into large chucks, and make a coarse paste in the grinder. This paste should have broken down tomato pieces. Do NOT make a puree or a smooth paste.
2

In a large non-stick wok, heat the oil. Then add the onion, garlic, and green bell pepper. Saute for 3-4 mins, till the onion becomes translucent and the bell pepper becomes tender.
3

Sprinkle a little bit of salt. Now, pour in the tomato paste and mix. Simmer for 30 secs.
4

Add in the cooked rice. Mix well. Keep flame on low. Then cover the wok with a lid.
5

After 3-4 mins, add in chilli powder, salt, pepper. Mix the rice.
6

Cook uncovered for another 3-4 mins, till the tomato paste is completely soaked up by the rice.
7

Then add the Mexican seasoning. Stir.
