Yummy Orange Rice

I made a delicious rice the other day that you might like to try. I invented this little recipe all myself, so I am quite proud of it.

Here is what I did:

I took 2 onions and chopped them up finely and placed them in a large stock pot where I had heating 2 tablespoons of olive oil.

I let this fry for about 2 minutes and then I added: 2 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon of ground cumin, 1 teaspoon of curry powder.

I allowed this to fry and then I added 3/4 cup of organic sugar. Once this was frying it sort of created a runny mixture, I then added one entire frozen can of unsweetened orange juice undiluted into the mixture.

I then added 4 1/2 cups of rice (Basmati) and allowed this to cook for 1-2 minutes. I then added 9 cups of water, allowed this to boil, then turned down the heat and let this cook for 20 minutes at which time I turned off the stove and kept the lid on the rice and let it continue to steam for an additional 10 minutes.

Fluff rice with a fork, and serve. YUM!
