Dill Rice

This easy dill rice is a classic in many Middle Eastern and Asian cuisines. Flavorful, fluffy rice is cooked with dill, and the result is a simple but delicious alternative to plain white rice.

📝 Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cup rice ((350 g))
• 2 cups chicken stock ((or water + 2 chicken stock cubes))
• 1 onion
• 1 tsp olive oil
• 4 tbsp finely chopped dill

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Heat the oil in a pot on medium heat. Add diced onion, and sauté for a few minutes until the onion is soft and translucent.
2. 2Add the rice and chicken stock, or water and stock cubes, and cover with a lid. Bring the rice to a boil, then reduce it down to a simmer on low heat. Leave it to gently simmer for about 10 minutes.
3. 3The water will now have completely absorbed. Remove the rice from the heat. Stir finely chopped fresh dill into the rice, then cover it with a lid again.
4. 4Leave the rice for 2-5 minutes covered with a lid, but away from the heat. This will make the rice more fragrant, and allow it to fluff up. It’s then ready to serve!
