My friend AJ posted this as a not tried and true
recipe and I gave it a try, fabulous!
Golden Jeweled Rice
Turmeric is used in the following recipe to turn brown
rice a
rich, golden color without affecting the flavor. Dried
fruits
give a bright, jeweled appearance and slightly sweet
taste.
2/3 cup quick-cooking brown rice (see note)
1 and 1/3 to 1 1/2 cup broth or water (or follow rice
package instructions)
1 teaspoon turmeric
1/4 cup dried apricots, cut in small pieces
1/4 cup dried cranberries
In a large saucepan, bring broth to a boil, stir in
rice and turmeric.
When liquid comes to boil again, reduce heat, cover
and simmer about 10 minutes
or until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender.
Meanwhile, place dried fruit in a small bowl.
Add hot (but not boiling) water to cover.
Let soak for 5 to 10 minutes, or until soft.
Drain well.
Remove rice from heat and stir in dried fruit.
Cover and let stand 2 to 5 minutes.
Lightly fluff mixture with a fork and serve.
Note: Regular brown rice can also be used. To shorten
the usual
50 to 60 minutes required, use an appropriate amount
of rice and liquid as given
on package instruction.
Cook at a low boil (not a simmer) until rice is
tender, about 30 minutes.
Drain away any remaining liquid.
Makes 4 servings.
