BASMATI RICE WITH FRIED CASHEWS AND RAISINS

This recipe was inspired by a New Year's Day feast I was invited to starring a huge chicken biryani. I helped the host with the final touches of the meal, including frying some nuts and raisins as a topping. I loved the flavor and texture they brought to the meal. While this recipe is certainly not biryani, the toasted toppings mixed into a lightly spiced rice, takes me back to that special day.

ASPARAGUS CASHEW RICE PILAF

This is an adaptation of an old Armenian recipe, and this variation is so delicious I can't stop eating it. It's a great way to stretch expensive seasonal asparagus and pricey cashews. It's great as a side dish or as a vegetarian entree.

BROCCOLI CASHEW RICE PILAF

I found this recipe on allrecipes.com and adapted it to include my favourite veggie, broccoli! You can also make this with asparagus. Butter lends a fantastic flavour to the recipe, so preferably, don't substitute it with any else. Although I've tried this only with water, using vegetable broth would add even more zing!

CASHEW RICE PILAF

This is a very simple recipe, but it's made savory by using chicken broth and adding the cashews. It doesn't take long to make, and I've found that fresh parsley really enhances the flavor of the dish rather than dried parsley.
