Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups basmati rice
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 onion, minced
1 ½ tablespoons minced fresh ginger
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 teaspoon ground fenugreek
¼ teaspoon ground turmeric
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup frozen peas
1 carrot, minced
½ cup minced green beans
½ cup minced cauliflower
3 ½ cups vegetable broth
½ cup chopped cilantro

Steps:

  • Rinse and drain rice 3 times. Place rice in a bowl and pour in enough water to cover; set aside to soak.
  • Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir onion, ginger, cumin seeds, fenugreek, and turmeric until onion just begins to brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Add garlic and continue to cook and stir until onions are browned, 5 to 10 minutes more.
  • Drain rice and mix into onion mixture; cook and stir until rice is dry and lightly toasted, about 3 minutes. Stir peas, carrot, green beans, and cauliflower into rice mixture; pour in broth. Cover saucepan and bring liquid to a rapid boil; reduce heat to low and simmer until rice is tender, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Remove saucepan from heat and fluff rice with a fork. Stir cilantro into rice, return lid, and let rest for 3 to 5 minutes.
