Jasmine Rice With Cumin And Mustard Seeds Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium size saucepan over a medium-high heat. Drop in the cumin seeds, and cook until they splutter. Do not allow the cumin seeds to burn or become really dark brown in color. Add the rice and fry it in the oil for about 1 minute.
• Add the water and salt and bring to a boil. Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to low and cover the saucepan. Cook the rice for approximately 15 minutes. If you feel the rice is getting burnt near the base of the pan as it cooks, one trick is to place the saucepan on another flat pan or griddle which is directly on the flame. Toss with a fork.

Steps:

• Rinse rice in a sieve until water runs clear and drain well. Cook cumin and mustard seeds in oil in a 2-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring, until mustard seeds begin to pop, about 2 minutes. Stir in garlic and rice and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add water and bring to a boil, uncovered. Cover rice and cook over very low heat until water is absorbed and rice is tender, about 20 minutes. Remove pan from heat and let rice stand, covered, 5 minutes. Fluff rice with a fork and stir in scallions and salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Rinse and drain rice in cold water to remove starch and impurities. Place drained rice and the cold water in a heavy saucepan. Bring the water to a rolling boil, uncovered, over high heat.
• Stir, reduce the heat to low, cover the pan tightly, and cook for 20 minutes. Remove the covered pan from the heat and let stand 10 minutes without removing the lid.
• Remove the lid and fluff the rice gently with a fork or rice paddle. Serve warm.

Steps:

• In a 1 1/2-quart heavy saucepan cook shallot in oil over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until softened. Add mustard seeds and cook, stirring occasionally, 1 minute. Stir in rice, salt, and water and bring to a boil. Stir rice once and cook, covered, over very low heat 15 minutes. Remove pan from heat and let pilaf stand, covered, 5 minutes. Fluff pilaf with a fork and stir in scallions.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan over a medium-low heat, warm the oil. Add onion and saute for 3 to 5 minutes. Mix in green peas, bay leaf, and jasmine rice. Stir to coat the rice.
• Pour 3 cups water into the saucepan and add the salt. Increase the heat to medium and let the rice come to a quick simmer. Reduce heat to low and let rice simmer lightly and sit uncovered until all of the liquid is absorbed. Cover the rice and remove from heat. Let sit for about 40 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat the oil over medium high heat in a medium-sized sauce pan that has a lid.
• Add the cumin and red pepper.
• Then cook the shallots until soft- 2-3 minutes.
• Remove shallots and set aside.
• Add rice and cook, stirring constantly for 30 seconds.
• Pour in the chicken broth and let rice cook on low heat until liquid is absorbed- 15-17 minutes.
• Remove from heat and let sit for 5 minutes.
• Stir in shallots, vinegar and salt and serve.
