Ingredients

Thai Hom Mali Jasmine Rice

Elaboration

  • 1 - Prepare the ingredients

    We prepare all the ingredients for this dish: Peacock Thai Hom Mali Jasmine Rice, vegetables, spices, olive oil, and vegetable broth.

  • 2 - Fry the artichokes

    In a large pan with high walls, add the peeled and quartered artichokes, and start frying them over medium heat with about 3 tablespoons of olive oil.

  • 3 - Add onion and garlic

    When the artichokes are golden brown, add the chopped onion and garlic, and continue browning the mixture with a pinch of salt and an extra tablespoon of olive oil.

  • 4 - Add the rest of the vegetables

    When the artichokes, onions, and garlic are golden, add the remaining vegetables and continue browning the mixture with the dried pepper and turmeric. Let the moisture in the mixture evaporate.

  • 5 - Add the broth

    Then, add the vegetable broth and wait for it to start boiling to begin cooking the rice.

  • 6 - Cook the rice

    Now, add the Peacock Thai Hom Mali Jasmine Rice and cook for 10 minutes over medium-low heat once it starts boiling. Correct the salt content, then cover the dish and cook for two more minutes over low heat.

  • 7 - Rest and serve

    After 2 minutes, turn off the heat and let the food rest for 3 more minutes so the flavours settle better. Enjoy the meal!

Preparing a rich and healthy meal, even with just a few ingredients in the fridge, is super easy if you follow the steps of this vegetable rice recipe. It is time to prepare healthy recipes and enjoy rice just as it was prepared in the family home, just as your grandmother used to make it.

Cooking tricks

The “Empty Fridge” Solution

Don’t worry if your fridge looks empty. This recipe is the perfect solution to use whatever vegetables you have on hand. You don’t need to be an expert chef to turn a few leftover veggies into a healthy, balanced meal for the whole family.

Selecting the Best Artichokes

Artichokes are rich in vitamins and minerals. When buying them at the market, choose the ones that feel heavy for their size and have thick, light green leaves. They are not only delicious but also have excellent natural diuretic properties.

Magic Trick for Texture

If you want to improve your culinary skills, try browning the Peacock Thai Hom Mali Jasmine Rice in the oil slightly before adding the vegetable broth. This adds a nutty flavour and improves the texture. Important: Ensure the broth is boiling hot when you add it so the cooking process isn’t interrupted!
