- 2½ cups carrots grated, 9 oz/ 250 g

Instructions
- Chop: Finely chop the onion. Grate the garlic cloves. Keep them separated.1 small onion + 2 garlic cloves

- Simmer carrot rice: Pour in the vegetable broth, stir, cover the pot. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer for about 10-12 minutes until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed. Check the rice.2½ cups vegetable broth/ 600 ml
- Leave, covered, for 5 minutes. Carefully mix in the butter until melted. Adjust the taste with salt and pepper if necessary. Fluff with a fork and serve. 1 heaped tablespoon butter
Notes
- Curry: I had Madras curry, which is very flavorful but only mildly hot. You can use any curry mixture you like and adjust the amount according to taste. If the curry is very hot, you might want to use a smaller amount.
- Rice: Basmati and jasmine rice are great, but plain long-grain rice is also great. Basmati and jasmine usually need about 10 minutes of cooking time, while other sorts of long-grain rice might need 12 to 15 minutes. Check the packet's instructions on the matter and prolong the cooking time accordingly.
