BUKHARI RICE
I�m going to make this soon. It sounds delicious! I love all varieties of Persian rice and this sounds a lot like that.
INGREDIENTS
- ? teaspoon clove
- 2 bay leaves
- � teaspoon nutmeg
- 1� cups cooked chickpeas
- nuts or dried fruits to garnish
- 2 teaspoons cumin
- 1 heaping cup of grated carrot
- 1 large onion, chopped or sliced thin
- 2 cups basmati rice
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cinnamon stick and/or � teaspoon powdered cinnamon
- 1� teaspoons cardamom
- � teaspoon black pepper (or more, to your taste)
- 3� cups hot vegetable broth
- sea salt (to taste, depends on how salty your vegetable broth is--I used 1 teaspoon)
INSTRUCTIONS
First Rinse and drain the rice 3 times, then cover with warm water and let it soak for at least 10 minutes or more.
Then In a large nonstick saucepan or pot over medium-high heat, add the oil and fry the onions with just a pinch of salt until they get soft and start to take a nice brown color on the edges. Add in the carrots and saut� for another minute or two. While that's going on, drain the rice and have it ready next to you.
Now, to the onion and carrot mix, add the cinnamon stick, bay leaves, cumin, cardamom, black pepper, nutmeg, and clove and saut� for another 30 seconds. The aroma will be very fragrant. Quickly add the drained rice and the chickpeas and stir them around gently to incorporate all the spices. Pour in the hot vegetable broth, stir, and let it come to a boil with the lid just slightly off the pot. After 5 minutes, you'll notice that the level of broth is now just below the surface of the rice and bubbles are popping through. (If this isn't the case, let it boil a few minutes more.) Cover the pot tightly with the lid and put the heat underneath on the lowest setting possible. C
Cook undisturbed (no peeking or stirring!) for 22 minutes.
After 22 minutes have elapsed, remove the lid and gently fold and fluff the rice with a spatula or a rice paddle. Then cover it again and let it sit off the heat for 5 minutes to finish it off. Happy Cooking TimeJ
