Title: Fried Rice
Categories: None
Yield: 1 Servings

1 1/4 c Brown rice
1 tb Butter
2 1/2 c Boiling water
1 ts Tumeric
3 Cloves
1 Bay leaf
Salt and pepper

Wash the rice thoroughly, then drain it, and if possible, leave it for a
half hour or so to let it dry off a little. Melt the butter in a
heavy-bottomed saucepan, and add that rice. Stir fry the rice over a gentle
heat until it becomes opaque-this will take about 5 minutes, and it's best
to stir the rice all the time so that it doesn't brown-then put in the
boiling water, tumeric, cloves, and bay leaf and a dash of salt and pepper.
When this mixture is boiling vigorously, turn down the heat and put a lid
on the saucepan. Leave the rice to cook very gently for 45 minutes--it
should be tender by then and have absorbed all of that liquid mixture. If
there's still a little water in the saucepan let the rice stand covered for
another 10-15 minutes OR uncover, and let it simmer for a few minutes.
Remove the cloves and bay leaf before serving. This serves 4.
