Ingredients for Brown Rice with Almonds:

Brown Rice with Almonds

 

  • 1 cup of brown rice
  • 1 tablespoon of oil
  • 1 chopped onion
  • 1 large clove of garlic, minced
  • 2 cups of vegetable broth
  • 2 tablespoons of fresh, ground coriander
  • ¼ teaspoon of ground cumin
  • Salt to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon of ground black pepper (or to taste)
  • ½ cup of sliced almonds
  • 8 cups of water

How to Cook Brown Rice with Almonds:

  1. Soak the rice in boiling water for at least half an hour, then drain and set aside.

  2. In a pot, heat the oil, add water, and bring it to a boil.

  3. In a non-stick pan, sauté the onion and garlic, stirring until they turn golden brown and the ingredients are cooked through.

  4. Add the soaked rice, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, cumin, and coriander to the pot of water and oil. Stir the mixture well.

  5. Let the pot boil until the water evaporates from the rice, which should take about six to ten minutes on high heat.

  6. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the rice cook gently, allowing it to fully absorb the water.

  7. Once the rice is almost done, add the almond slices and gently stir. Be careful not to stir too much or too quickly. Let the dish simmer on low heat for an additional ten minutes to ensure it cooks thoroughly.

  8. Serve the dish hot, accompanied by a side of salad, tomatoes, or yogurt, depending on your preference.

Enjoy this healthy and flavorful meal!
