easy stove-top turmeric rice #gluten-free #vegan

INGREDIENTS (2 – 3 servings):

• 1 US cup long grain rice, I used jasmine rice
• 1 US cup filtered water
• 100g yellow onion, diced
• 2 tsp turmeric powder
• 1/2 tsp kosher salt

METHOD:

1. Rinse rice in a medium sized sauce pan until water runs clear – approximately 3 to 4 rinses.
2. Add turmeric powder and salt onto the rice. Mix until well incorporated.
3. Add diced onion. Mix.
4. Add 1 cup water. Mix. Bring water to a boil.
5. Once water is boiling, simmer over low heat for 10 minutes. Stir occasionally.
6. After 10 mins, turn heat off and let rice rest for another 5 mins.
7. Use a fork to fluff the rice.
8. Rice is now ready to serve.

Time saving tips:

• You can freeze 1/2 or 1 cup portions of the cooled turmeric rice by placing it on cling wrap. The wrap it into a square. Be careful not to let the cling wrap go between the rice. Freeze it up to 3 months. Next time you feel like having turmeric rice, just unwrap the frozen rice and put it in a bowl. Cover with paper towel and microwave it for 1 minute
