YELLOW RICE



Yellow Rice image

Yellow rice is a beloved dish among many cultural traditions. A staple side in Latin American kitchens, arroz amarillo appears in various iterations across the region. The appeal of yellow rice extends to Central and South Asia, and South Africa, and its brilliant hue achieved with saffron, turmeric or achiote. This version uses widely available and economical ground turmeric, and is a canvas upon which you can incorporate other ingredients and spices. Consider adding a bell pepper to the onion and garlic, or stir in a cup of frozen peas at the very end. The amount of cooking liquid you use depends on the type and quality of your rice, and be mindful to cut down on salt if you use a salted broth. Typically served as a side dish, the dish can also be served on its own.

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups white basmati rice (or jasmine rice)
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 small yellow onion, finely chopped (about 1 cup)
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal)
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
3 cups water, chicken broth or vegetable broth for basmati rice (or 2 2/3 cups, if using jasmine rice)
Handful of cilantro leaves, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • In a fine-mesh sieve, rinse the rice until the water runs clear, then set aside to drain.
  • In a medium saucepan or pot, heat the oil over medium. Add the onion and garlic, and cook, stirring frequently, until softened and fragrant, about 5 to 7 minutes. Take care not to burn the garlic by reducing the heat slightly if necessary.
  • Add the rice and sprinkle it with the salt and turmeric. Stir to combine, then cook the rice and spices in the oil for about 1 minute. Add the water, bring to a lively boil over high heat and then immediately cover and reduce the heat to low. Cook for about 15 minutes, until the water has been absorbed. Turn off the heat and allow the rice to continue steaming, covered, for another 10 minutes.
  • Gently fluff with a fork or a slotted spatula, taking care not to break too many grains. Garnish with the cilantro, if using, and serve.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the rice will taste. Use long-grain rice, such as basmati or jasmine, for a light and fluffy texture. Use fresh garlic and ginger for the best flavor.
  • Rinse the rice: Rinsing the rice removes the starch, which helps to prevent the rice from sticking together. Rinse the rice in a fine-mesh strainer under cold water until the water runs clear.
  • Use the right amount of water: The amount of water you use will depend on the type of rice you are using. For long-grain rice, use 1 1/2 cups of water for every cup of rice. For medium-grain rice, use 1 3/4 cups of water for every cup of rice.
  • Cook the rice over medium heat: Cooking the rice over medium heat helps to prevent the rice from sticking to the pot and burning. Bring the rice and water to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and all of the water has been absorbed.
  • Let the rice rest before serving: Let the rice rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. This will allow the rice to steam and fluff up.

Conclusion:

This garlicky yellow rice is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is made with simple ingredients that you probably already have in your pantry, and it can be ready in under 30 minutes. The rice is fluffy and flavorful, with a slightly garlicky taste. It is the perfect accompaniment to grilled chicken, fish, or vegetables.
