BROCCOLI CASHEW RICE PILAF
I found this recipe on allrecipes.com and adapted it to include my favourite veggie, broccoli! You can also make this with asparagus. Butter lends a fantastic flavour to the recipe, so preferably, don't substitute it with any else. Although I've tried this only with water, using vegetable broth would add even more zing!

- Stir onion and garlic into the saucepan, and cook about 2 minutes, until tender.
- Stir in rice, and cook for about 5 minutes.
- Pour in vegetable broth and season mixture with salt and pepper.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, cover, and cook 20 minutes, or until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed.
- While the rice is cooking, place broccoli in a separate medium saucepan with enough water to cover.
- Bring to a boil, and cook until tender but firm; drain excess water.
- Mix broccoli and cashew halves into the rice mixture, and serve warm.
