Bokhari Rice (Saudi & Afghani)

I love rice but I prefer to add vegetables. This recipe calls for celery, carrots, onions, and hot peppers, but you can substitute any other vegetables. Rice freezes really well so I like to make a big batch and then freeze in 1-2 cup amounts.

My family like plain boiled rice with every kind of curry, but, particularly with Chicken Tikka Masala (see https://cookpad.wasmer.app/uk/recipes/352376-chicken-tikka-masala?invite_token=m8cJT99fm1wMNcEYHMnxXutF&shared_at=1618842991 ), I like this version of pilau rice, based on Madhur Jaffrey's recipe for Tumeric Rice. It gives the curry an authentic touch.

I received some bamboo shoots, so I adjusted a recipe from the head Japanese chef of the Athens Summer Olympics, Chef Hiromitsu Nozaki, into an easy-to-make amount and method. This combination of rice and dashi is a good balance for many kinds of mixed rice.The ratio of dashi stock, usukuchi soy sauce, and sake should be 10:1:1.If you'd like it a bit sweeter, use 2 tablespoons of usukuchi soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of sake, and 2 teaspoons of mirin.

Rice is to the Middle East what pasta is to Italy. While rice is a staple in Asian countries, there it is typically served plain; the flavors coming from the sauces for the vegetables, meat or legumes. Iraqi and particularly Iranian rice dishes, on the other hand, are known for their flavours, colours and, especially, their presentation. The way we serve them is something of a ritual. Having more than one rice dish at a meal is not unusual. Sometimes we even make a rice crust on the bottom of a dish so that, when served turned upside down, it looks like a cake.It took me a long time to get used to making a smaller quantity of rice for dinner. When I was growing up, my mother would serve everyone a big mound of rice topped with whatever stew she had cooked that day. We’d eat the rice with a spoon or by scooping it up with a piece of hubus, or flatbread. I guarantee you that in any traditional Iranian home you’ll find a huge pot of rice on the stove.The Iranian and Iraqi method of preparing rice: partially cooking it, draining it, then returning it to the pot with fried onion and a touch of water and continuing to cook it very slowly. This method results in delicious dry, almost crispy, rice, but it is time-consuming and the rice loses some of its nutritional value.Here’s my way:

I am trying to make this Middle Eastern food, because it’s easy to prepare and to cook. Also taste delicious. I made it again and again for us, my hubby’s friends, and my friends too. And it’s surprise me because they liked it. Actually this is not my recipes. I got this recipes from my classmate, and she’s originally from Iran. She cooked this food when I was visiting her in her apartment. And in my taste, it was so tasty, so I asked her the recipe, because I would like to cook it by myself. Since it’s really easy and tasty, I decided to shared it in here. For everyone who wants to give it try, here is the recipe.
