CURRIED RICE WITH RAISINS



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.

Surprisingly easy and extremely flavorful. The curry powder does not add an actual curry taste, just a nice rich flavor, so give it a try even if you aren't a curry fan.

TURKEY CURRY WITH RAISIN RICE



Turkey Curry With Raisin Rice image

I haven't been a huge fan of curries, but I absolutely adored this one from a Diane Mott Davidson book (The Killer Pancake), so now I'm trying out other curries from this site. Since I don't see this great one already posted, I'm adding it for your culinary enjoyment. I didn't make my own stock, I bought a box at the store, but chicken broth would probably work just as well. It's mostly just to add flavor to the rice. The recipe originally listed white rice, but I substituted brown since I rarely use white rice. I bet popcorn rice would also be good. For the New Year's party that I was attending, it was easier to just stir the meat and the rice all together and take it as a casserole rather than serving it as two items, and that worked out just fine. I used skim milk and non-fat dry milk to keep fat content lower, and did not notice any affect on the finished product. I suggest getting the rice started before preparing the curry since it takes a while to cook.

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb ground turkey
1 cup apple, chopped unpeeled
1 cup onion, chopped
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons flour
1 tablespoon curry powder
1 tablespoon beef bouillon granules
1/2 cup dry milk
2 cups milk
1 cup rice
1/2 cup raisins
2 1/4 cups chicken stock

Steps:

  • Turkey Curry: Saute the ground turkey until evenly browned. Drain fat and set aside.
  • In a greased or non-stick skillet, saute the apple and onion over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the onion is translucent. Set aside.
  • Reduce heat to low and heat the olive oil. Stir in the flour and curry powder until the flour begins to bubble.
  • Combine the bouillon granules, milk and dry milk; whisk until combined. (The bouillon granules will dissolve when they are heated in the sauce.)
  • Gradually add the milk mixture to the curry mixture, continuing to stir over medium-low heat until the mixture thickens.
  • When the mixture is thick, add the turkey and the apple-onion mixture. Stir well and heat through. Serve over Raisin Rice.
  • Raisin Rice: In a large nonstick skillet, toast 1 cup raw rice over medium heat, stirring frequently, until most of the rice is brown. (Mottled appearance is desirable.)
  • Stir in raisins and chicken stock.
  • Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover the pan, and cook for 25 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed.
