Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/3 cup Major Grey's mango chutney
2 1/2 cups canned unsalted chicken broth or water
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 red bell pepper, diced
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
1 cup long-grain white rice
1 tablespoon curry powder
1 15-ounce can low-salt kidney beans, rinsed, drained
1 small orange-fleshed sweet potato (yam), peeled, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 10-ounce package frozen chopped collard greens, thawed, squeezed dry
1/2 cup dried currants
Plain nonfat yogurt (optional)

Steps:

  • Place chutney in blender. Add broth gradually and puree. Set aside.
  • Heat oil in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add bell pepper and garlic and sauté 3 minutes. Add rice and curry powder and stir 1 minute. Add beans, potato, greens and currants and stir to blend. Add broth mixture. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until rice and vegetables are tender and liquids are absorbed, about 25 minutes. Turn off heat and let stand covered 10 minutes.
  • Mound pilaf in large bowl. Serve, passing yogurt separately, if desired.

This recipe was a disappointment. The rice was mushy and the vegetables were overcooked.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pilaf turned out really bland. I think I might have forgotten to add the curry powder.

This pilaf is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables. It's also a great way to use up leftover rice.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover rice. I always have leftover rice in my fridge, so this is a great way to use it up.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my pilaf turned out really dry. I think I might have added too much rice.

This recipe was a disaster! The rice was mushy and the vegetables were undercooked. I won't be making this again.

This pilaf was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I'll definitely make it again, but I'll use less curry powder next time.
