I tried this recipe last weekend when we had company. I served this with salmon which was marinaded with soy and ginger. I absolutely LOVED this rice.
Carrot Rice
1 cup basmati rice
2 cups water
1/4 cup roasted peanuts
1 tablespoon margarine
1 onion, sliced 1 teaspoon ginger root, minced
3/4 cup grated carrots
salt to taste
cayenne pepper to taste
Directions
1 Combine rice and water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a
boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low, cover with lid,
and allow to steam until tender, about 20 minutes.
2 While rice is cooking, pulverize peanuts in a blender
and set aside. Melt margarine in a large skillet over
medium-high heat. Saute onions until golden brown. Stir in ginger,
carrots, and salt to taste. Reduce heat to low and cover to
steam 5 minutes. Stir in cayenne pepper and peanuts. When
rice is done, add it to skillet and stir gently to combine
with other ingredients. Garnish with chopped cilantro.
