Ingredients
1 onion, diced
2 carrots, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ tsp ground turmeric
½ tsp ground paprika
½ tsp chilli powder
2 cups basmati Fortune Rice, rinsed
3 ½ cups vegetable stock
Large handful of coriander leaves, roughly chopped
Method
Bring a drizzle of olive oil to medium-high heat in a large saucepan. Sauté the onion, carrot and garlic for 4-5 minutes or until softened.
Add the turmeric, paprika, chilli powder, salt and pepper. Cook for a minute or until fragrant.
Stir in the rice and cook for a few minutes to toast the rice.
Pour in the vegetable stock and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce to a simmer, cover and cook for 15-20 minutes or until cooked through and the liquid has absorbed.
Remove from the heat and leave covered for 10 minutes, then fluff the rice with a fork. Scatter over coriander leaves just before serving.
