thunder tea rice

This week a colleague introduced me to something that has eluded me since arriving in Singapore nearly a year ago - Thunder Tea Rice.

While this doesn't sound special, he had described it to me as very healthy, brown rice dish with veggies and green tea on top. Oh, you had me at healthy! Singapore is a haven for foodies and a dieters worst nightmare. But I've never seen this dish in any of the (many!) hawker centres we've tried.

So while out working an event together, he came back with orders of thunder tea rice for the team. It was delicious, not to mention high-fiber, low fat and packed with anti-oxidants.

Thunder Tea Rice has the following:

• Green Tea: Powerful anti-oxidant, helps to lower cholesterol.

• Basil & Mint: Anti-stress, for cooling & calming effect, aids relaxation, relieve colds.

• Fuliksum: Remove body toxins and fluid wastes, strengthen immune system.

• Chinese Parsley & Coriander: Ease digestion & gastric, combat flu & headache.

• Ginger & Ngal: Expel body winds & gas.

• Sesame: Maintain youth & enhance beauty.

• Groundnuts: High in protein, good for stein.
