Description

This fragrant Basmati rice, Indian style, is an absolute highlight! I often make it as a side dish to curries or simply as a light lunch. The rice is refined with aromatic spices such as turmeric, cumin and Garam Masala and refined with roasted almonds. The preparation in the Thermomix® is super easy and quick. A touch of chili provides a pleasant spiciness. Perfect for those who love Indian cuisine and are looking for an uncomplicated rice preparation. Also great as a base for bowls!
