Buttered Herbed Rice Recipe

Ingredients:

 

2 cups Basmati Rice

1 teaspoon finely chopped Garlic

4 Basil Leaves (roughly torn)

½ teaspoon finely chopped Parsley Leaves

1 teaspoon Dried Oregano

1 teaspoon Red Chilli Flakes

2 tablespoons Salted Butter

Salt and Black Pepper Powder, to taste

Instructions:

 

Rinse the Basmati rice thoroughly under cold water until the water runs clear.

In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.

Add the finely chopped garlic and sauté until fragrant.

Stir in the torn basil leaves, finely chopped parsley, dried oregano, and red chili flakes.

Add the rinsed rice to the pan and stir to coat it with the herb-infused butter.

Pour in 4 cups of water (or follow the rice-to-water ratio on your rice package instructions).

Season with salt and black pepper.

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 18 minutes or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed.

Remove from heat and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes.

Fluff the rice with a fork and serve warm.
