Turmeric Rice

Days when I don’t feel like eating plain-looking rice, I just add some turmeric and some herbs and voila some sumptuous bowl of steamed rice 🙂

Ingredients:

1 cup of rice – the non clinging type, we aren’t making ugali

2 cups water

salt to taste

1 teaspoon of turmeric

2 teaspoons of dried parsley

Remove any chaff from the rice, then wash it thoroughly.

In a sufuria add in your rice and all the seasoning (salt,turmeric and parsley).

Stir till they are incorporated.

Then add in your water, preferably hot. I used cold.

Cover slightly and let it simmer.

I felt a bit naughty and went against all rules from my mother about rice cooking and stirred it just before the water had completely evaporated. I read somewhere it helps in making the rice fluffy.

I covered and let the water to completely evaporate.

Serve 🙂
