Carrot and Ginger Rice

Instructions

1. 1

   Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This helps to remove excess starch.

2. 2

   In a medium-sized pot, bring 400ml of water to a boil. Add the rinsed rice, reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 10-12 minutes or until the rice is cooked and the water is absorbed.

3. 3

   While the rice is cooking, peel and grate the carrots and ginger.

4. 4

   In a large pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the grated ginger and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

5. 5

   Add the grated carrots to the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.

6. 6

   Stir in the turmeric powder and mix well to coat the carrots evenly.

7. 7

   Add the cooked rice to the pan with the carrot and ginger mixture. Gently mix everything together, ensuring the rice is well coated with the spices.

8. 8

   Season with salt to taste and cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

9. 9

   Remove from heat and serve warm. Enjoy your Carrot and Ginger Rice!
