PARMESAN RICE PILAF



Parmesan Rice Pilaf image

MY Mom found this recipe in a local newspaper years ago and it has been one of our favorite side dishes for a long time. The original recipe was a little bland, so I have doctored it up a little. Sometimes I make more than I need for one meal so I can have leftovers.

I wanted a rice recipe that was easy and relatively quick to make brown rice more tasty. This is what I came up with. :-) I've used long-grain brown rice and brown basmati rice for this, but you could also use white rice. Great for any meal you would use rice in.

Categories     Side dish

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 tbsp olive oil
3 large onions (red or white), sliced
pinch of salt
2 tbsp soft brown sugar
1-2 tbsp balsamic vinegar

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large deep frying pan over a low heat.
  • Add the onions with a generous pinch of salt and cook slowly for 30-40 mins. Stir occasionally to prevent them from sticking or burning until they become soft and golden. If the onions start to catch, add a splash of water to the pan and mix well.
  • Add the sugar and vinegar to give them a sweet, slightly sharp chutney flavour. Keep cooking on a low heat for another 5 mins, stirring occasionally until the mix is sticky, the sugar has dissolved and the vinegar has reduced. The onions are now ready to serve, or use in a recipe.

CARAMELIZED ONION AND LENTIL PILAF



Caramelized Onion and Lentil Pilaf image

Back in 2003, Nigella Lawson brought to The Times a recipe for chicken and apricot masala, and with it, she paired this dish, a caramelized onion and lentil pilaf. "The sweet smokiness of scorched onion and the depth of spicing you get from cumin, coriander and cloves more than balances out the rich texture of the rice studded with lentils and mustard seeds," she wrote. "This dish is robust and earthy ballast. I might even have it by itself for supper, with no more than a salad of diced cucumber, dressed with yogurt and dried mint, on the side." Perhaps you should do the same.

Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons ghee (clarified butter) or vegetable oil
1 onion, peeled, halved and thinly sliced into half-moons
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
2 cloves
1/2 teaspoon mustard seeds
4 dried curry leaves (optional)
2 teaspoons salt
Black pepper
1 cup French green lentils
1 cup basmati rice

Steps:

  • In a large heavy-based saucepan, heat ghee over medium heat. Add onion slices, and sauté until softened and deep golden brown. Remove half the onions and set aside.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low and add turmeric, cumin, coriander, cloves, mustard seeds and curry leaves. Add salt, and season with black pepper to taste.
  • Combine lentils and rice in a fine-meshed sieve, and rinse well with cold water. Drain, then add to pan. Add 4 cups water, raise heat, and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to very low, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes. Water should be completely absorbed; if not, remove pan from heat, remove lid and cover pan with a kitchen towel, then replace lid and allow to stand for 10 minutes.
  • To serve, fluff pilaf with a fork, and transfer to a serving bowl. Garnish with reserved onions.
