Sweet Rice Zarda Food

AMI'S ZARDA

Ami's Zarda image

Nice yellow fluffy rice with almonds, sugar and raisins. This is my mom's famous recipe. It's different from the traditional Zarda with lots of oil and sugar. Saving it here for my coming generations.

Time 45m

Yield 6-7 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 cup rice
4 cups water
1/2 cup almonds
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 teaspoon of yellow powdered food coloring
8 cardamoms
1 cup sugar
6 -7 tablespoons oil

Steps:

Take a coffee mug fill it with water and add almonds to it and then put it in the microwave for 2 min , this will make it easier for you to take the skin off , cut them length wise across. Keep aside.
Take another coffee mug, fill it with water and add raisins to it and place it in microwave for 1 minute Drain the water and keep aside.
For rice: Put 4 cups of water in a sauce pan, add 3 cardamoms (break them with the back of the knife to release the pods/seeds -Note, we want the whole thing in not just the pods) and food color, bring to boil, add the rice in.Keep the heat on high.
When rice is half way cooked turn the heat off and drain the water. Keep the rice aside. (In order to know if the rice is half cooked, with a spoon take three grains of rice and you will notice three lines in the middle of the grain; this means that the rice is half cooked.
In a separate sauce pan , heat the oil, break 5 cardamoms add them in, cook for few seconds, add little less than ½ cup of water (CAUTION: MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A LID NEAR BY BEFORE ADDING WATER) Cover the sauce pan with lid as soon as you add water. Then add sugar and stir around till it's well dissolved, add raisins and rice and almonds inches Mix the rice so that it's covered with the sugar syrup and the raisins and almonds are evenly distributed.
Keep the heat medium for 5 min or till all the liquid in the rice is gone. Add 2 teaspoon of oil on the top of rice for a little gloss. Now, cover the top of sauce pan with a foil paper and put the lid on, place the pan on a tawa (the one you make Indian pita bread on ) and cook it on a lower heat for 5 minute Reduce the heat further to the lowest for another 6-7min. AND you are DONE!
This can be served hot or at room temperature. Some people like it with some Crème fraîche -- but I like to eat it as it is with some apple and cinnamon green tea. Yummy!

SAFFRON SWEET RICE -- ZARDA PULLAO

Saffron Sweet Rice -- Zarda Pullao image

A sweet Indian cinnamon and sugary rice we especially enjoy in Ramadan at the time of breaking the fast. The saffron gives it a warm, pleasant taste and aroma, and it makes a beautiful presentation with its bright yellow color in individual serving dishes.

Time 1h25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

crumpled up saffron thread, about 1/4 teaspoon
1 tablespoon warm milk
1 cup long grain rice
1/4 cup pistachios
1/4 cup butter
3 cardamom pods
1 stick cinnamon
1 1/2 cups water
1 dash yellow food coloring
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons sugar
1/8 cup golden raisin

Steps:

Put the crumbled up saffron into the tablespoons of warm milk and let it sit for 1-2 hours.
Wash the rice well, then put it into a large bowl with about 5 cups of water and leave it to soak for 1/2 hour. Drain completely.
Melt the butter over medium heat in a heavy oven-proof pot with a tight-fitting lid. (you will be placing it into the oven later on so this is important).
When the butter is hot put in the pistachios and toast them lightly (they will get a kind of golden tint) this takes about a minute or two. Remove the pistachios with a slotted spoon and set aside.
Now, put the cinnamon stick and cardamom pods into the same butter. Stir and fry for 1 minute.
Now, put the drain rice into the butter with the cinnamon and cardamom and stir and fry for about 3 minutes.
Add water, food coloring, and salt. Stir and cook until all of the water is absorbed.
Now put in the saffron milk, sugar, and raisins. Mix together, cover, and place it into an oven set at 325°F for 25 minutes.
When finished, place into a pretty serving bowl, or individual serving bowls (take out the cinnamon and cardamom first) and sprinkle with the pistachio nuts.
Enjoy!
