TURMERIC ORANGE GINGER INFUSED RICE
I made up this recipe from the only turmeric rice recipe I found on Zaar. It was made totally on the fly, and turned out delicious. I hope you feel the same. Rather than writing a review on the original recipe I thought it better to post a different one, since I had made several changes, instead of singling them out in my review of the first one. The mint adds just a hint of freshness to the rice, the mango a small sweetness along with the orange water, the toasted pine nuts add great crunch and texture, and the ginger/garlic marry well with all other flavors without being overpowering.

Steps:
- Take ½ cup diced dried mango in a small cup and add 1 tablespoon thawed frozen orange juice concentrate.
- Add enough very warm, but not hot, water to cover. Let sit to plump and infuse mango with orange juice.
- Meanwhile, melt butter over low-medium heat in 2 quart saucepan, but do not brown.
- Add garlic and ginger to butter and let combine until entire mixture is no longer raw and cooked to infuse the butter. Do not brown.
- Drain mango, take juice and pour into measuring cup and add water to equal 1 ¾ cup.
- Add liquid to saucepan and bring to a boil. Add rice, salt, cinnamon and pepper and turmeric.
- Cover and simmer about 15 minutes til rice is tender and all liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat, covered.
- Then add macerated mango, fluffing with a fork. Recover. Before serving, sprinkle with freshly minced mint and pine nuts. Refluff. Taste for seasoning (salt and pepper), and adjust to taste.
- Drizzle with Extra Virgin Olive Oil and serve. Enjoy.
