Ginger and Turmeric Aromatic Rice
Report
Ginger and Turmeric Aromatic Rice is a flavorful healthful rice to serve alongside just about any entree
Share:
Ingredients
- 1 cup white Basmati rice
- 1.5 cups water
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil (or oil of choice)
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger peeled and grated
- 1 teaspoon fresh turmeric peeled and grated*
- 1 teaspoon sea salt to taste
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- ½ cup dried cranberries
For serving:
- ¼ cup fresh cilantro chopped
- ¼ cup pine nuts toasted
Instructions
- Add all ingredients for the rice except for the dried cranberries to a small pot, cover, and bring to a full boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook, covered, until rice has absorbed all liquid, 15 minutes (or according to package instructions). NOTE: if using a rice other than white basmati rice, follow package instructions for amount of water and cook time.
- A few minutes before rice is finished cooking, stir the dried cranberries into the rice - this allows them to plump up and lends more flavor to the rice. Re-place the cover and continue to cook.
- Taste rice for flavor and add more sea salt if desired. Serve with fresh cilantro and pine nuts alongside your favorite main dish.
