Curried Rice With Raisins image

My friend Cara and I needed a side dish one night and all I could think of was a curry dish I'd had at a local (Manhattan) Tai resturant. I could not find anything that was exactly right in the recipes already posted so I made this up. It was soooooooo good I now have to make it everytime we have dinner!!

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 medium onion (valencia or sweet mayan)
4 tablespoons butter (salted)
3/4 cup raisins (any variety)
3 teaspoons curry powder (I used a mix of mild and medium)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 cup basmati rice (uncooked)
2 cups water

Steps:

  • Cook rice in 2 cups of water. Basmati rice is hard to ruin. It cooks fast and is exactly 2 to one ratio water to rice. 1 cup uncooked Basmati will take 10 to 20 minutes to cook.
  • While rice is cooking melt butter in skillet.
  • Chop onion and saute in butter until translucent.
  • Add curry, raisins, salt and pepper, cover and simmer on low heat until rice is finished or about 5 minutes.
  • If rice pan is large enough, mix it around with a wooden spoon to losen then pour mixture in skillet over the top. If not, transfer rice and curry mix to a larger bowl.
  • Mix well and enjoy.
