Directions
Turmeric Rice by Madhur Jaffrey,This simple, yet tasty rice dish is from a book I got in a sale a long time ago. I liked this dish as it used things I had to hand and had a similar taste to rice in a local curry house. The flavour is delicate and not in the least overpowering so will go well with most dishes. I have used leftovers in a stir fry and it was just as good.,I doubled the cloves, garlic and turmeric because I know I love those spices / flavours and garnished the top with crispy slow cooked onions, it turned out amazing. Would make this again in a heartbeat. Its going to be staple recipe going forward. We ate it with a vegetarian curry and home made flatbreads. Bomb dinner!,A mild but great tasting dish. I served the rice with Indian Cabbage and Carrots which is also on this site. They make a tasty combination. Thanks Frugal Fifer.
