Yellow Jasmine Rice | ارز الياسمين الأصفر

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 Tbsp butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp turmeri
  • 1/4 tsp cumi
  • 1/8 tsp cinnamo
  • 2 cups uncooked Aloha® jasmine rice
  • 3 cups Aloha® chicken broth
  • 1 bay leaf, optional

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Add the butter, garlic, turmeric, cumin, and cinnamon to a medium sauce pot. Sauté over medium heat for 1-2 minutes, or just until the garlic has softened.
  • Add the uncooked rice to the pot. Stir and cook over medium heat for about 2 minutes to slightly toast the rice. You may hear a slight popping or crackling noise as the rice toasts.
  • Add the chicken broth and bay leaf to the pot. Place a lid on top, increase the heat to high, and bring the pot to a rolling boil. As soon as it reaches a full boil, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer (with the lid in place) for 20 minutes.
  • After letting it simmer for 20 minutes, turn the heat off and let it rest (do not remove the lid) for an additional 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and serve.
