Saffron Rice

Saffron Rice
Lakshmy Subramoniam 24 comments

A delicate and decadent dish that can be eaten as is or paired with anything your heart desires! This saffron rice takes just a few additional minutes compared to making plain rice. But the result is so much better than eating just plain rice!

And here is the recipe:

Vegan, gluten-free 

Yield: For 2
Prep time: 5 mins 
Cook time: 15 mins
Total time: 20 mins

Ingredients:

  • 1 tbsp flavorless oil (grapeseed, sunflower, or canola)
  • 2 cloves
  • 1 tsp cumin seeds
  • 1 inch Ceylon cinnamon stick
  • 1 tsp saffron
  • 1 cup long grain white basmati rice (uncooked)
  • Salt to taste

Directions:

Rinse the rice in cold running water around 5 times and then soak the rice in some water for 30 mins (this gets rid of the excess starch).

In the meantime, add the saffron to a small bowl and add 2 - 3 tbsp of warm water to release its color and flavor. Soak for at least 5 minutes.

To a pot on medium high heat, add a tbsp of cooking oil. Add the cumin seeds, cloves, and cinnamon and toast the spices for 30 seconds and until fragrant.

Strain the rice and add to the pot with the toasted spices. Fry the rice for 2 minutes. Then, add the saffron strands with the water to the rice and give everything a good mix. Cook for 1 minute.

Add 2 cups of hot water to the pot (2 cups of water for 1 cup of rice), bring to a boil, then lower the heat to the lowest, add salt, mix the contents, cover the pot with a lid, and simmer for 15 minutes till all the water is absorbed and the rice is completely cooked.

This saffron rice tastes good with literally anything but works especially well with chana masala or saag tofu!

Hello everyone my names are ALEX JACKSON from the UK, I want to use this golden medium to appreciate Doctor Abdul a great spell caster for helping me retrieving back my relationship with my ex lover when he ended and turned back on me for quite a long time now (6 months ago). He performed a spell for me and within 48 hours after the spell had been cast I received a text from my ex saying that he is sorry for the pains and tears that he had caused me and that he will not do such a thing to me again in his life. I was surprised but later accepted him back again. Anyone that is in the same line of problem or different one that wants to contact a spell caster should happily contact Doctor Abdul now on this email address.doctorabdulspellcaster@gmail.com or message him through his Whatsapp +2348108728256

My name is Ashley Vivian, Am here to share a testimony on how Dr Raypower helped me. After a 1/5 year relationship with my boyfriend, he changed suddenly and stopped contacting me regularly, he would come up with excuses of not seeing me all the time. He stopped answering my calls and my sms and he stopped seeing me regularly. I then started catching him with different girls several times but every time he would say that he loved me and that he needed some time to think about our relationship. But I couldn’t stop thinking about him so I decided to go online and I saw so many good talks about this spell caster called Dr Raypower and I contacted him and explained my problems to him. He cast a love spell for me which I use and after 24 hours,my boyfriend came back to me and started contacting me regularly and we moved in together after a few months and he was more open to me than before and he started spending more time with me than his friends. We eventually got married and we have been married happily for 3 years with a son. Ever since Dr Raypower helped me, my partner is very stable, faithful and closer to me than before. You can also contact this spell caster and get your relationship fixed Email: urgentspellcast@gmail.com or see more reviews about him on his website: https://urgentspellcast.wordpress.com WhatsApp: +27634918117
