Best 6 Cardamom Coriander Rice Recipes

CARDAMOM-CORIANDER RICE

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium low heat. Add the rice, cardamon parts, and cayenne pepper. Cook for 6 to 7 minutes, stirring constantly. Watch carefully so that the rice does not stick or burn.
• Stir in three-and-a-fourth cups water and the salt. Bring the water to the boil, then cover the pan tightly and cook over very low heat for about 20 minutes, or until the grains are just tender.
• Remove the pan from the heat and let the rice rest, covered, for five to 10 minutes. Sprinkle the chopped coriander or parsley over the rice and serve.

ISMAIL'S CORIANDER AND CARDAMOM DRUMSTICKS

Steps:

• In large pan, saute onions in oil with cardamom pods and cloves until onions just brown. Add chutney, garlic puree, salt, and pepper and sprinkle over drumsticks. Add water to pan, and cook over low heat for 30 to 40 minutes.

CHALLAW (CARDAMOM AND CUMIN BASMATI RICE)

Steps:

• In a large pot with a lid, bring 8 1/2 cups water to a boil over high heat. Meanwhile, drain the rice in a large fine-mesh sieve or colander and rinse under cold water until the water runs clear. Add the rice and 1 tablespoon kosher salt (or 1 1/2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt or fine salt) to the boiling water. Boil uncovered, until the grains seem to have doubled in length, 5 to 6 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan or kettle, bring 1 1/2 cups of water to a boil and keep at a simmer. Place the cardamom pods on a cutting board and lightly crack them with the side of a large knife.
• Drain the parboiled rice in the sieve or colander and return the rice to the pot. Add the cracked cardamom pods and any seeds that may have popped out, the cumin seeds and 1 tablespoon kosher salt (or 1 1/2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt or fine salt). Mix gently to combine, taking care to not break the rice grains. Drizzle with the oil and the just-boiled water from the saucepan, and stir gently to coat the rice.
• Cover the pot and cook over high heat until steam escapes from beneath the lid, 3 to 6 minutes. This is a critical step in preparing the rice to avoid overcooking it. Once you see the steam, reduce the heat to low and cook until the rice is tender and all the water is gone, another 20 minutes. Serve immediately.

CUMIN/CARDAMOM CILANTRO RICE!

Steps:

• Cook the onion in the oil, in a deep saucepan with the cloves, cardamom pods, cinnamon stick, cumin seeds until the onion is slightly browned and soft. Keep the heat medium to low and stir frequently; this should take about 10 minutes.
• Add the rice and move it about in the oily spiced onion until it is slicked and glossy, then pour in the stock and bring the pan to the boil. Cover the pan with a lid and cook over the lowest heat possible for 20 minutes.
• Turn off the heat, take the lid off, cover with a kitchen towel and cover with the lid. You can leave the rice to rest like this for at least 10 minutes, and up to about 1 hour.
• Fluff the rice before serving and garnish with cilantro!

CREAMY RICE PUDDING WITH CARDAMOM

Steps:

• Combine milk, cardamom pods and 6 Tbsp of the sugar in a saucepan. Bring to boil, turn to low and stir in rice. Continure stirring until sugar dissolves. Cover and cook over a very low heat for 1 hour. Remove from heat.
• Put egg yolk in a cup and beat lightly. Add 2 Tbsp hot pudding to the cup and mix slowly. Pour mixture back into the pan and stir through.
• Stir in remaining sugar. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring every so often until pudding is thickened, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove and discard cardamom pods. Add sultanas and half the slivered almonds. Mix well and let cool completely.
• Whip cream until stiff. Reserve 3 Tbsp and fold in rest into cooled rice pudding. Transfer to a 1/5 litre gratin dish. Sprinkle remaining almonds on top.
• Preheat grill (broiler) to maximum and place pudding under it briefly until lightly browned. Leave to cool and refrigerate until ready to serve.

CARDAMOM-COCONUT RICE

Steps:

• Remove seeds from cardamom pods, if using, and discard pods. Grind seeds to a powder in a spice grinder or mortar.
• In a medium saucepan with a tight-fitting lid, melt butter over medium-low heat. Add onion and cardamom, and cook, stirring frequently, until translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Add rice, and stir until grains are well coated with butter, about 1 minute. Add cinnamon stick, coconut milk, 1 3/4 cups water, salt, and sugar. Stir well to combine. Bring to a boil, and immediately reduce heat to lowest setting. Cook, covered, for 25 minutes. Remove from heat, and let stand for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork. Serve hot, garnished with shaved coconut.
