This Turmeric Spiced Rice is the perfect accompaniment to almost all of the meat dishes I’ve posted on here! Fragrant yellow rice, packed with peas and carrots and flavored with meaty chicken broth, it’s a great side dish to go alongside baked chicken breasts, pan-fried pork chops, chicken stir-fry…you get the idea! This turmeric rice recipe is super simple to follow.
After frying the onions you basically toss everything into one pot and leave the rice to cook away until softened. You can even have it as a simple meal just on its own!
To make Turmeric Spiced Rice, you will need the following ingredients:
Place a pan over a medium heat and melt the butter. Add the onion and cook for about 5 minutes, until translucent.
Pour in the water and add the turmeric, peas and carrots and bouillon cube. Mix everything well, until the cube has fully dissolved.
Bring the water to a boil before stirring in the rice.
Lower the heat and cover the pan with a lid. Leave the rice to cook for about 15 minutes, until it has softened and all the water has been absorbed.
Why not try this Turmeric-Spiced Rice recipe with some fresh chopped cilantro or toasted almonds scattered over for extra freshness and crunch? However you make it, don’t forget to share your cooking experience with me - tag #cookmerecipes or leave a shout-out below!
