Carrot Rice

Ingredients

• 1 cup Basmati rice ((185 g))
• 2 cups water ((450 ml))
• 2 carrots, grated
• 1 small onion
• 1 garlic cloves
• 1 thumb sized ginger
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
• 1 teaspoon olive oil

Instructions

1. 1

   Heat up the oil in a pot, and add finely diced onions. Sauté for a few minutes until soft and translucent, then add grated or finely diced ginger and garlic along with the cardamom and bay leaf. Sauté for another 30 seconds, or until fragrant.

2. 2

   Add grated carrots and dry rice, and stir to combine the ingredients before adding the water. Cover with a lid, and bring the rice to a boil.

3. 3

   After boiling for about a minute, remove the pot from the heat and leave it covered. The steam and heat in the pot will continue to cook the rice. After about 10-15 minutes, or when all the water is absorbed, the rice is ready to serve.
