MOURAD'S MAGIC RICE

My husband's dish - inspired by Somali rice. I won't use any measurements this time to avoid metric confusion ;-)

Measure up rice, basmati or long grain, to taste, use a little more water than you would usually though. Add salt and turmeric.
Add garlic, finely chopped or bashed up with pestle and mortar. Then, you can add basically what you like... Read More - in this photo there is a cinnamon stick in pieces, unsalted cashews, broad beans, chick peas, green peas and yellow and black raisins. Boil for about 20 minutes.
