Another truly South African taste experience. There are many versions of this recipe and this is mine. I serve this rice with frikkadelle accompanied by a simple beet salad and steamed greenbeans.
Ingredients:
1 cup long grain rice
4 cups boiling water
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons turmeric
1 cinnamon stick
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup raisins
1 tablespoon butter
Directions:
1. Place rice, water, brown sugar, salt, turmeric and cinnamon stick in a pot.
2. Boil over high heat 20 minutes.
3. Drain excess water.
4. Add remaining ingredients and steam rice until soft and fluffy.
5. Remove cinnamon stick before serving.
