Cooking instructions

Pilau Rice Recipe
Cooking time: 30 mins | Serves: 4
Create delicious restaurant style pilau rice using this recipe.

Just add

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil OR ghee
  • 400ml water

Instructions

  1. Wash the rice until the water runs clear.
  2. In a pan add the rice with 400ml of water, the whole spices and vegetable oil OR ghee
  3. Boil on a high heat until the water has been fully absorbed by the rice.
  4. Reduce heat and stir. Seal the pan with a tight fitting lid to trap steam (if needed, use cling film or foil under the lid).
  5. Cook on a very low heat for 10 minutes.
  6. Test if the rice is done by squashing a grain between your fingers - it should squash easily and not feel hard or gritty. (If the rice is still gritty, add 2 to 3 tablespoons of water and cover and cook for a few more minutes.)
  7. Take the pan off the heat, let it sit with the lid on for 10 minutes, then fluff the rice with a fork before serving.


To Make Coloured Pilau Rice

Pilau rice is sometimes coloured, the colour makes no difference to the taste and is purely for decoration.

For multi-coloured pilau rice: Dilute small amounts of red, green, and yellow food colouring in water. Add a few drops to the rice after removing it from heat. Let it rest for 10 minutes, then fluff and mix with a fork.

For yellow pilau rice: Add half a teaspoon of turmeric powder in step 2.
