Directions
Basmati Rice – Indian Style,Great authentic basmati rice to be served with chicken tikka masala or chicken tandoori. Don’t be intimidated by the spice mix, they blend very well. If you like indian food, you’ll appreciate this dish.,I put it in my rice cooker after toasting the rice – great flavors but it was a little more watery than I would have liked. Next time I will reduce the water a bit. Also added diced carrots to the rice cooker and frozen peas at the end to make it more like the rice we get at our local Indian restaurant.,To add a bit of color – mix in 1/8 teaspoon of turmeric with a tablespoon of water then add a handful of some still hot rice to the mixture. Then mix this rice back into the white rice. This is for 1 cup of dry basmati rice.
