Indian Rice and Salads - Portuguese Version >>
Indian Rice
Ingredients:
- 3 cups of Basmati rice
- 1 soup spoon of butter
- salt and pepper
- 2 average sized onions
- 1 soup spoon of powdered curry
- 1 cup of peeled almons, roasted and chopped (or whole, according to taste)
- 2/3 of a cup of black raisins
Preparation:
Sauté the onions in the butter to a nice golden color then add the rice. When it starts to fry add 6 cups of hot water, stir well and season with salt, a little pepper and the curry. Let it cook in a low boil and stir every so often. The rice should become lose and “al dente”. Then mix in the raisins but only add the almonds right before serving so they remain crispy.
