Directions
Savory Curried Rice With Dried Fruit,This rice not only looks beautiful, but it’s bursting with savory flavors, and your house will smell delicious when you cook this! This is a recipe I adapted from Taste Of Home’s Holiday Recipes. I made it my own by altering a few ingredients and adding others, but yield amount and cooking time/method are the same. I like to make the rice mix a day or two ahead to let all the flavors meld. This makes 2 batches of rice.,OMG, this was fantastic! The dried fruit (used dates and cranberries) really added a unique flavor. My wrestler son, who watches his food intake and usually eats half his dinner, had seconds! My husband, to whom tofu is a 4 letter word,even agreed with my suggestion that next time I add tofu and serve as a whole meal. My only problem was that my rice needed more water and cooking time than specified in the recipe.,Really enjoyed this delicious rice dish. The package of dried fruit used contained dried prunes, apricots, dates and apples. I served this dish along side a wine-braised chicken dish and both complimented each other very well. Made for PAC, 2011.
