RICE PILAF WITH ALMONDS AND RAISINS



Rice Pilaf With Almonds and Raisins image

Pilafs may be served at everyday meals but are grand enough for entertaining as well. If you like, you could add a generous pinch of saffron threads to the rice just before you cover it and let it simmer. You could also use chicken stock instead of the 22 cup water.

Yield Serves 4-6

2 cups basmati rice

When hot, put in the cinnamon. Let it sizzle for 10 seconds. Put in the onions. Stir and fry the onions until they start to brown. Add the almonds. Stir until they are golden. Add the raisins.

Cover tightly, turn heat to very, very low, and simmer gently for 25 minutes.

ALMOND WILD RICE
