I don’t know about the health benefit of Turmeric very well, but it is fun to cook striking yellow rice using Turmeric. I sometimes cook rice with Saffron when I want to serve yellow coloured rice with curry, but Saffron is quite expensive. Turmeric Rice is just good enough. I recommend not to season the rice with salt too heavily when you serve it with salty curry.
