Why serve the same old boring rice when you can so easily turn it into something a bit special ? This pairs nicely with curries, but also with roasted meat or fish dishes. Ingredients:
1 cup basmati rice |
2 cups water |
1/2 teaspoon fennel seed |
1/2 teaspoon cardamom seed |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Put all ingredients into a sauce pan.
2. Bring water to the boil.
3. Cover with a tight-fitting lid, and reduce heat to the lowest possible setting at which it will still simmer.
4. Do not disturb for 15 minutes and do not remove the lid!
5. After this time, remove the pan from the heat, and allow to stand for 5 minutes.
6. Do not remove the lid!
7. When the standing time has elapsed you may now remove the lid.
8. Fluff with a fork, and add salt and pepper to taste.
