đšâđł Instruktioner
- 1
Heat vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
- 2
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- 3
Stir in the diced tomatoes, bell pepper, and carrot. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften.
- 4
Add the xawaash spice blend, turmeric, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to coat the vegetables and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- 5
Add the rinsed basmati rice to the pot and stir to coat it with the spices and vegetables.
- 6
Pour in the water or fish broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover tightly, and simmer for 15 minutes.
- 7
Gently place the fish chunks on top of the rice and vegetables. Re-cover the pot tightly and continue to simmer for another 10-15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily, and the rice is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid.
- 8
Let the pot stand, covered, off the heat for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- 9
Fluff the rice gently with a fork, incorporating the fish and vegetables. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro before serving.
đĄ Proffstips
- âEnsure the fish is added gently to avoid breaking it up too much.
- âUse a good quality xawaash blend for the best flavor.
