Ingredients
-
2 cups uncooked long grain rice
-
1 cup dried mixed fruit (I use a mixture of dates, apricots, and cranberries)
-
1 cup slivered almonds
-
1/2 cup raisins or 1/2 cup sultana
-
2 tablespoons dried onion flakes
-
4 teaspoons curry powder
-
1 teaspoon salt
-
2 1/2 cups water
-
2 tablespoons butter
-
4 teaspoons chicken bouillon granules
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the first 8 ingredients. You can do this a day or two in advance to allow flavors to meld, but it's not necessary.
- Combine water and butter in a saucepan; bring to a boil.
- Add 2 cups rice mix, reduce heat, and simmer for 20 minutes, or until liquid is absorbed.
- NOTE: I make this a complete meal by adding cooked chicken thighs. You can store this rice mix in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
