4 Servings

Ingredients

  • 4 1/2 cups vegetable stock
  • 2 cups basmati or long grain rice
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon ground turmeric
  • 2 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 bunch mint leaves
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil

Instructions

  • Combine all ingredients for the rice in a large heavy saucepan. Place the pan on the stove, raise the heat to high, cover the pan and bring to a boil. Once boiling, stir the rice, cover the pot again and reduce the heat to low. Simmer the rice for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the stock has reduced completely. Remove from the heat and fluff the rice with a fork.
  • Before serving the rice, heat a small saucepan with the coconut oil and place the mint leaves in the hot oil. Fry for 2 minutes on each side until crispy.
  • Top the turmeric rice with the fried mint leaves and serve.
