Simple Curried Rice Recipes

Steps:

• Saute 1 chopped onion, 2 smashed garlic cloves, 1 cinnamon stick, a strip of lemon zest, 1/2 teaspoon curry powder and a pinch of turmeric in a saucepan with butter and olive oil until lightly browned. Add 1 cup basmati rice and stir until toasted. Add 1 1/3 cups water, season with salt and bring to a boil, then cover and simmer 15 minutes. Let sit 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork and add a splash of lemon juice and some cilantro and cashews.

Steps:

• If making the garam masala combined 1 tsp ground cloves, 1 tsp ground ginger, 1 tsp ground cinnamon, and 1 tsp black pepper in a small bowl. Place in an air tight container and put aside.(Note: You will not be using all of this in the recipe.).
• Start by cutting your choice of meat, the potatoes, carrots, and onion (or celery) into bite-sized pieces.
• Heat a deep pan on medium.
• Add the cooking oil and the meat.
• Saute until the meat is fully cooked.
• Add vegetables and saute together.
• Add the 1 cup of water to the pan and bring to a boil.
• Turn the heat down to low and cook for 40-50 minutes.
• In a separate pan heat the 3 cups of water and add the two types of bouillon to make soup.
• Slice the remaining two onions very thinly. (it will be better for the recipe this way).
• Heat butter in another pan and saute onion slices until they are brown for 15-20 minutes.
• Add the garlic and the ginger to the pan and saute well.
• Add flour and curry powder and saute over low heat.
• Slowly pour the soup into the pan, little by little, stirring quickly.
• Simmer the curry roux until thickened. (Resist the urge to add more flour. It may seem a little thinner than desired, but it will thicken once added to the meat and vegetables.).
• Once the curry roux is thickened, add the garam masala. (Try to sprinkle it in, instead of dumping the lot of it inches If there are clumps, it will take longer to dissolve).
• After the meat and vegetables have been cooking for 40-50 minutes add the curry roux to them. (Do not drain the meat and vegetables first. The water remaining will flavor the curry further).
• Stir and let simmer for ten minutes.
• Sprinkle with salt.
• Serve the curry over Japanese rice.

Steps:

• Saute onion in butter until softened.
• While onions are sauteeing, bring chicken broth to boil in another pot.
• Add rice and spices to onion and brown slightly.
• Add boiling chicken broth.
• Pour into 9x13 glass dish and cover with plastic wrap.
• Microwave for 20 minutes at 80% power.

Steps:

• Start the rice cooking.
• Over low to moderate heat, saute onion, garlic, and your vegetable of choice in butter. (If you use tuna packed in oil, you can drain the oil and use that to saute the onions.)
• Season with salt and curry powder and continue to saute until veggies are tender.
• Stir flour into vegetables until it coats them and combines with the butter/oil.
• Over moderate heat, add enough of the milk to cover the vegetables, and stir to create a smooth sauce. As the milk begins to heat, the butter/flour mixture that was coating the vegetables will begin to blend with and thicken the milk. Once it becomes thick, add half of the remaining milk, and continue stirring until it again heats to the thickening point. Then add the rest of the milk, stir again, and allow to come to the thickening point for the last time. (This process is a bit difficult to describe, but not hard to do. Adding the milk at little at a time and stirring to keep it smooth as you go keeps the sauce from forming lumps and prevents scorching. You can also do this step over low heat, in which case you don't have to stand right over the pot stirring constantly, but it's still good to add the milk in stages, and stir regularly.).
• Once the sauce is heated, add the tuna, and bring back to simmering. If the tuna is packed in oil, drain the oil (which you may have used in step one). If it's packed in water, you can just dump the whole can into the sauce, water and all.
• Serve tuna curry over rice. A green veggies side is nice (steamed asparagus or broccoli, cucumbers in vinaigrette, green salad, or peas).

Steps:

• Cook onion and garlic in oil in a 3- to 4-quart heavy saucepan over moderately low heat, stirring, until softened. Add curry powder and rice and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add water and salt and boil, uncovered, without stirring, until surface of rice is covered with steam holes and grains on top appear dry, about 8 minutes.
• Reduce heat to as low as possible, then cover pan with a tight-fitting lid and cook 15 minutes more.
• Remove pan from heat and let rice stand, covered, 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.

Steps:

• Heat small sauce pan and add oil over medium/hot heat. Cook onions until soft; add curry and and rice and saute for 1-2 minute.
• Add salt and broth and let come to a boil over high heat, as soon as it boils turn heat all the way down and cover for approx 20 min, until done. Keep the lid on and try to avoid to peek too many times.
• remove from heat and let sit of 5-10 minute.

Steps:

• Stir the rice, water, and curry powder together in a rice cooker; cook for 1 full cycle or until all the water is absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, saute rice and onion in butter for 5 minutes. Stir in broth and seasonings. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 18-22 minutes or until rice is tender.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pan and cook the onion for 8-10 mins until soft and just turning golden. Boil the kettle. Stir the curry paste, ground turmeric, rice and raisins into the onions. Crumble over the stock cube and pour over enough boiled water from the kettle to cover the rice by ½cm (about 1 litre). Season with some salt. Bring to a gentle simmer, then cover the pan, reduce the heat to its lowest setting and cook for 2 mins more. Without taking off the lid, remove from the heat and leave to steam for 15 mins. This will give you perfect, fluffy rice.
• Meanwhile, bring another pan of water to the boil and cook the eggs for 7 mins. Plunge into a bowl of cold water to stop them cooking and once cool, drain and halve.
• Tip the rice into a container and chill for at least 1 hr, or up to two days. When you're ready to serve, scatter over the coriander and almonds, and top with the grated carrot, cucumber slices and eggs.

Steps:

• Cook rice as directed on package and stir in remaining ingredients with the water.
• Cook until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender.

Steps:

• Heat oil and uncooked rice in medium sauce pan on Medium High Heat. Stir and let rice fry briefly adding water just before rice begins to turn brown. ( It won't take long ) Add the rest of the ingredients. Bring to full boil. Stir and reduce heat to Low. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
