CUMIN RICE

Steps:

• Add the butter and cumin seeds to a medium sauce pot. Sauté the cumin seeds in the butter over medium-low heat for 1-2 minutes, or just until the butter starts to turn golden brown. Do not let the butter burn.
• Add the uncooked rice to the pot and continue to stir and cook for 2-3 minutes more to toast the rice.
• Mince the garlic and add it to the pot along with the salt and water, and stir to combine. Place a lid on the pot, turn the heat up to high, and let the liquid come up to a boil.
• Once it reaches a boil, turn the heat down to low and let it simmer (with lid) for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, turn off the heat and let it sit undisturbed for 10 more minutes before lifting the lid.
• After resting for 10 minutes, remove the lid, fluff with a fork, and serve.

CUMIN RICE

Steps:

• Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a heavy saucepan with a tight-fitting lid. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring, until wilted. Add the rice, cumin, salt and pepper. Stir briefly over low heat until the grains are coated with butter.
• Stir in the broth and make sure there are no lumps in the rice. Add the parsley, thyme and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer over low heat. Cook for 17 minutes.
• Discard the parsley and thyme sprigs and bay leaf. Using a fork, stir in the remaining butter. If the rice is not to be served immediately, keep it warm.

CUMIN RICE

Steps:

• Bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Season with salt. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and water has been absorbed, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain.

JEERA (CUMIN) RICE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium size saucepan over a medium-high heat. Drop in the cumin seeds, and cook until they splutter. Do not allow the cumin seeds to burn or become really dark brown in color. Add the rice and fry it in the oil for about 1 minute.
• Add the water and salt and bring to a boil. Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to low and cover the saucepan. Cook the rice for approximately 15 minutes. If you feel the rice is getting burnt near the base of the pan as it cooks, one trick is to place the saucepan on another flat pan or griddle which is directly on the flame. Toss with a fork.

CUMIN!! RICE

Steps:

• In a teapot bring 3 cups of water to the boil.

(If using whole cumin seeds, dry roast, tranfer to coffee mill, pulverize then add back to pan.).
• Add enough boiling water to cover the rice by 1 1/2 inches. Add the salt. Reduce heat to low and cook the rice uncovered until you see small "craters" on the surface and water has evaporated. This will take about 15-20 minutes.
• Cover the pan tightly, remove from heat and let sit 20-25 minutes.
