Basmati Recipes

Chciken cut up

I got creative with my rice today. It turned out good.
I had to build the recipe to log the calories.

The flavor of India- Garam Masala, an aromatic Indian spice blend.
I purchased mine at Uwajimaya in Seattle.

This is a great side dish with veggies included. The curry flavor is not overpowering.

Replacing white rice with brown rice is a healthier option. Regular short grain brown rice flavor and consistancy changes the taste of a dish it is added to. My husband and I have found that brown basmati rice is soft and does not interrupt the flavor of our foods. We use Kohinoor brand; found in Indian store.

Easy Indian inspired meal

Up your rice game for full flavor on a tiny budget! I replaced pomegranate with raisin and peanut with almonds for this version, experimenting with the sweet and crunchy elements.

Tangy and nutty - This makes a great southwestern-style side dish. This recipe can be adapted to use left-over rice of any type.

I use this as a side dish with turkey meatballs.

From Healthy family Cookbook

This is a delicious restaurant quality basmati rice. So good. It's worth stopping at an ethnic food store to find black cardamom but you can substitute green cardamom if need be. Please note some of the spices are not included in the calorie breakdown as they don't contribute any calories.

The trick to this recipe is the soaking and the very slow heating. Don't rush it.
