Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3 green onions sliced into thin wheels
- 2 cloves garlic crushed
- 2 tomatoes diced
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 cups long grain rice
- 4 cups chicken stock
- 1/4 cup cilantro chopped
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a large heavy-based pot over medium to high heat. Add in the green onions and garlic and saute for 5 minutes.
- Pour in the tomatoes along with the paprika, turmeric, onion powder, cumin, coriander, and Oregano, and saute for another 5 minutes.
- Add the rice into the pot with the veg and let it fry, stirring for 5 minutes. This gives the rice a little toasted flavor.
- Next, pour in the chicken stock and half of the cilantro. Sprinkle in a little salt and pepper then give it all a stir, place the lid onto the pot, and bring it to a boil. Turn the heat right down and let the rice simmer for 15 minutes or until the water has cooked away.
- Leave the lid on to steam for 5 minutes, then fluff the rice, sprinkle on the rest of the cilantro, and serve.
