Rec. Indian style Rice with Cashews, Raisins, Craisins....

[marsha-tbay]

I just made this, it is so good. I added Applegate Farms Chicken with Apple Hot Dogs and served with the Carrot, Peanut & Raisin with Cumin Dressing salad I posted here earlier. I used Better than Bouillon Chicken Flavor seasoning instead of the mock chicken or vegetable stock.

Wonderful flavors. Enjoy!

Indian Style Rice with Cashews, Raisins and Craisens

1 T. Olive Oil

1 1/2 c. Basmati Rice

1/2 Onion, finely diced

1 (14 oz) can Coconut Milk

2 c. Vegetable Stock or or 2 c. Water + 2 T. McKay's Mock Chicken Style

Seasoning(I did this)

1/2 t. ground Cumin

1/2 t. ground Coriander

1 pinch Crushed Red Pepper Flakes

1/4 t. ground Turmeric

1 Bay leaf

1/2 c. Raisins

1/2 c. Craisins

3/4 c. Cashew Halves

Heat oil in a large pot over med-high heat. Stir in Rice and cook for 3-4

minutes, stirring often. Add the onions and cook another 2 minutes,

stirring occasionally. Pour in the Coconut Milk, stock, Cumin, Coriander,

Red Pepper Flakes, Turmeric, Bay leaf, Craisins, Raisins and Cashew halves.

Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook until rice is

tender, about 10 minutes.
