Categories     Rice

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 cups basmati rice
3 quarts water
1 1/2 tablespoons salt
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon coriander seed, coarsely crushed
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 lemon, zest of

Steps:

  • Bring 3 quarts water to a boil in a heavy pot.
  • Rinse the rice in several changes of cold water until the water runs clear. Drain well.
  • Add the rinsed rice to the boiling water and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes from the time the water returns to a boil.
  • Drain the parboiled rice well and clean and dry the pot.
  • Add the butter to the pot and cook over low heat until melted.
  • Stir in the coriander seeds and pepper.
  • Add the parboiled rice to the pot, making a mound in the center.
  • Use the handle of a cooking utensil to make 5 or 6 holes in the rice, all the way to the bottom of the pot.
  • Lay the lemon zest over the top of the rice.
  • Cover the pot with a kitchen towel and a lid, folding the edges of the towel up over the lid (to keep the towel from burning).
  • Cook rice over low heat, undisturbed, until the rice is tender and a crust has formed on the bottom of the pot, about 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Remove the pot from the heat and let rice stand, tightly covered and undisturbed, for 30 minutes.
  • Spoon the loose rice onto a serving platter and garnish with the lemon zest.
  • Season with salt to taste.
  • Break up the crust and scatter it over the rice. Serve warm.

I was looking for a simple and flavorful rice recipe and this one fit the bill perfectly. The coriander and cumin added a nice touch of flavor without being overpowering. I will definitely be making this again.

This rice is so easy to make and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I love the nutty flavor of the coriander and the fluffy texture of the rice. I usually serve it with chicken or fish, but it also goes well with vegetables.

I'm not a huge fan of coriander, but this recipe changed my mind. The flavors were so well-balanced and the rice was cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more salt and pepper. I also would have liked to see some vegetables in it, like peas or carrots.
