Saffron Rice with Raisins and Pine Nuts
A fragrant and colorful rice pilaf infused with the delicate aroma of saffron, studded with sweet raisins and crunchy pine nuts. This dish is a popular side, often served during holidays like Rosh Hashanah for good luck.
🧂 सामग्री
- 1.5 cups Long-grain rice
- 3 Tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
- 2 medium Onions(chopped)
- 0.5 cup Pine nuts
- 3 Tbsp Raisins
- 2 cups Vegetable stock or water(hot)
- 0.25 tsp Saffron threads(dissolved in 2 Tbsp hot water)
- Salt(to taste)
- Black pepper(freshly ground, to taste)
👨🍳 निर्देश
- 1
Rinse the rice under cold running water until the water runs clear. Drain well.
- 2
Heat the olive oil in a heavy saucepan or pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and pine nuts and cook until the onions are translucent and the pine nuts are lightly golden, about 5-7 minutes. Be careful not to burn the pine nuts.
- 3
Add the rinsed rice and raisins to the pot. Stir well to coat each grain of rice with the oil and to toast them slightly, about 1-2 minutes.
- 4
Pour in the hot vegetable stock (or water) and the dissolved saffron liquid. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Stir to combine.
- 5
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot tightly with a lid, and simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed. Small craters should appear on the surface of the rice.

Once cooked, turn off the heat and let the rice stand, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff gently with a fork before serving hot.
