Categories     side dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup basmati rice
2 cups water or stock (chicken or vegetable)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 small onion or 1 medium leek, finely chopped
3/4 pound carrots (2 large), peeled, cut in half lengthwise if large, and thinly sliced on the diagonal
Salt to taste
1/2 cup finely chopped flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Place the rice in a bowl in the sink and rinse several times with water, or soak for 30 minutes, to wash away some of the starch. Drain through a strainer.
  • Heat the water or stock to a bare simmer in a saucepan or in a Pyrex measuring cup in the microwave.
  • Meanwhile, heat the oil in a wide, heavy skillet or saucepan over medium heat and add the carrots, onion or leek, and salt to taste. Cook, stirring, until the vegetables begin to soften, about 3 minutes, and add the rice. Cook, stirring, until the grains of rice are separate and beginning to crackle. Add the hot water or stock and salt to taste and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer 15 minutes, until all of the liquid has been absorbed.
  • Uncover the rice and place a clean towel over the top of the pan (it should not be touching the rice). Replace the lid and allow the rice to sit for 10 minutes, undisturbed. Add the parsley and gently fluff the rice, then pile the pilaf onto a platter or into a wide bowl and serve.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality rice: Long-grain rice, such as basmati or jasmine, works best for this recipe. It cooks up light and fluffy, and it has a pleasant aroma.
  • Rinse the rice before cooking: Rinsing the rice removes the starch, which helps to prevent it from becoming sticky.
  • Use a good quality chicken broth: The chicken broth is the base of the rice, so it's important to use a good quality broth. You can use homemade chicken broth, or you can use a store-bought broth that is low in sodium.
  • Add the parsley at the end of cooking: Parsley is a delicate herb, so it's best to add it at the end of cooking to preserve its flavor.
  • Serve the rice immediately: Rice is best served immediately after it is cooked. If you need to keep it warm for a while, you can place it in a covered dish in a warm oven.

Conclusion:

Rice with parsley is a simple but flavorful dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. You can add other vegetables, such as diced carrots or peas, or you can use a different type of herb, such as cilantro or basil. Rice with parsley is a delicious and versatile dish that is sure to please everyone at the table.
