Spread the love

Ingredients for 2 servings:

  • 1 tbsp oil, unflavored or ghee
  • 2 garlic cloves, halved
  • 1 onion(s), finely diced
  • 1 apple, peeled and diced, e.g. Braeburn
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 tsp vegetable broth, instant
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 200 g rice, parboiled
  • 400 ml water

Instructions

Working time approx. 10 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Heat oil or ghee in a small saucepan. Sauté the garlic, onion, and apple cubes. Add the instant broth, salt, sugar, and tomato paste, and fry briefly while stirring. Now add the rice and water, stir everything together, bring to a boil briefly, and then simmer on low heat with the lid closed (follow the rice’s instructions). It usually takes about 15-18 minutes for the rice to absorb all the liquid. Do not remove the lid during this time and do not stir. The rice goes well as a side dish with poultry.
