Turmeric rice

I wanted to cook some saffron rice but I didn't have saffron on-hand. So, I decided to "get creative" and try with turmeric instead. What resulted was a simple and tasty rice that you may want to try, too. Here's the recipe (yields enough cooked rice for 2 - 3 healthy servings).

Ingredients:
  • 1 cup basmati rice
  • 1/2 t salt
  • 1/2 t sugar
  • 1/4 t turmeric
  • 1/4 t ground cloves
  • 1 T EVOO
Instructions:
  • Wash the basmati rice in warm water and drain. Repeat, until the water is clear.
  • Put the basmati rice in a rice-cooker and add two cups water.
  • Add the salt, sugar, turmeric and cloves.
  • Add the EVOO.
  • Cook on the "Quick cook" setting.
After the cooking cycle completes then open, let stand for a few minutes, stir, and serve or save for later. Tasty!
