Brown Basmati Rice Recipes

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.

This was my mother in laws recipe and it is just such a great side dish. It's great to use with leftover rice. I prefer basmati, but you could use jasmine too.

I use this as a side dish with turkey meatballs.

Side dish

This blend of brown and white rice is a nice compromise for my kids, who prefer boxed rice pilaf, which is full of crazy ingredients. I haven't yet found a flavorful brown rice and a white rice with the same cooking time, so this is done in two steps. Real chicken broth is the best choice, but I was out today so calculated the recipe using bouillon and broth. Fresh garlic, onion and parsley are, IMO, better than dried but dried gives my kids the "boxed" texture and flavor that they like and is quick and easy. You can also use broken pieces of vermicelli or even spaghetti in place of the orzo.
