PILAF WITH PEAS AND RAISINS



Pilaf With Peas and Raisins image

The raisins will plump up sweet and full of the flavors, the cashews will give crunch and the peas will lend additional color and sweetness. One of my favorites from Yamunda Devi's "The Art of Indian Vegetarian Cooking". Not being a vegetarian I think it is great with a chicken curry and a mixed salad.

Yield 2 servings; can be doubled

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 14 1/2-ounce can diced tomatoes in juice
1 6- to 7-ounce russet potato, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
6 ounces firm or extra-firm tofu, drained well, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 1/2 cups frozen peas, thawed
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Season with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • To achieve the perfect texture for your rice pilaf, it's important to use the correct ratio of rice to liquid. A good starting point is 1 cup of rice to 1 3/4 cups of liquid (broth or water).
  • Before cooking the rice, rinse it thoroughly under cold water to remove any excess starch. This will help prevent the rice from becoming sticky.
  • To add extra flavor to your rice pilaf, try toasting the rice in a little bit of butter or ghee before adding the liquid. This will give the rice a nutty flavor.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to your rice pilaf, such as carrots, celery, or bell peppers. You can also add protein, such as chicken, shrimp, or tofu.
  • Garnish your rice pilaf with fresh herbs, such as parsley, cilantro, or mint. This will add a pop of color and freshness to the dish.

Conclusion:

Rice pilaf is a versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a main course or a side dish. It's a great way to use up leftover rice, and it's also a budget-friendly meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and flavorful rice pilaf that the whole family will enjoy.
