Oriental-Style Carrot Risotto With Raisins image

I came up with this after trying several variations of Indian carrot rice which I absolutely loved. Cooking time includes 1 hour resting time. The rice will be just warm when ready to serve. If you want it hot, gently reheat a little, but be careful not to burn it. Great with chicken and vegetables.
