Yellow Rice

Step 1

In a medium saucepan over medium high heat add the olive oil and the onions. Cook for about 3 to 4 minutes, or until the onions just begin to soften.

Step 2

Add the rice. Stir to coat. Add the turmeric, cumin, salt and pepper. Stir just to combine and get the spices slightly toasted.

Step 3

Add the water and cover. Increase the heat to high and bring the water to a boil. Immediately reduce to low and simmer, covered, for 20 minutes.

Step 4

Remove from the heat and allow the rice to sit for about 3 to 5 minutes.

Step 5

Drizzle with a bit of fruity extra virgin olive oil before serving.
