Classic Yellow Rice
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 3 large shallots, chopped
  • 2 cups uncooked jasmine rice, rinsed and drained
  • 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 3 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
Instructions
1
Melt butter in a substantial, thick saucepan over an intermediate heat setting. Introduce shallots into the pan; cook and stir until they become tender and lose their opacity, approximately 3 minutes. Introduce rice, garlic, salt, turmeric, coriander, cumin, and bay leaves into the saucepan. Continue to cook and stir for another 3 minutes. Add chicken broth and bring the mixture to a rolling boil. Decrease heat to a low setting, cover the saucepan, and cook until the broth is fully absorbed and the rice becomes tender, taking around 20 to 25 minutes.
2
Take the saucepan off the heat source. Discard the bay leaves and transfer the cooked rice to a serving container
