Pineapple Rice

Ingredients

For 6 people

  • 1 cup(s) brown rice
  • 2 teaspoon(s) oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon(s) grated fresh ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon(s) turmeric
  • 1/2 teaspoon(s) salt
  • 2 1/2 cup(s) water
  • 1 cup(s) pineapple chunks
  • 1/4 cup(s) chopped scallions
  • 1/2 cup(s) chopped cashews

Directions

In a medium saucepan with a tight fitting lid, combine the rice, oil, garlic, ginger, turmeric and salt. Saute for a minute or two, stirring constantly to prevent sticking. Add the water and bring to a boil. When the water boils, reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer for about 45 minutes, until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender. Stir in the pineapple, scallions and cashews.
