2 tablespoons canola or safflower oil
1 cup peeled and thinly sliced shallots
1 teaspoon curry powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 cups cooked and cooled long grain white rice (such as jasmin or
basmati), see Note
Recipe
In a large heavy skillet, heat the oil over medium-low heat until
hot. Spread the shallots in the bottom of the pan, cover and cook
slowly, lifting the lid often to stir, until soft and translucent.
Stir the curry powder, cumin, turmeric, pepper and salt into the
shallots; cook about a minute. Then spread the cooked rice in the pan.
Cook the rice, stirring often with a wide spatula, until some of the
grains and shallots are lightly browned and the rice is heated
through, about 10 minutes.
Note: For 3 cups cooked rice, begin with 1 cup raw rice and 2 cups
water. Makes 4-6 servings Source: Seattle Times
