Savoury Rice - Goes well with Seafood

Instead of serving plain white rice, why not try a savoury rice. This goes extremely well with seafood.

You need :

1 Tablespoon Oil
1 Teaspoon Butter
1 to 2 Tablespoons Tumeric, (Use 2 if  you want the rice to be a deeper yellow)
1/2 teaspoon crushed garlic
1 Cube Chicken Stock
1/4 Cup finely chopped Onion
3 Spring Onions finely chopped
1/4 Cup Green Pepper ( finely chopped)
1/4 Cup Grated Carrot

Here's How:

Cook the rice, (add a cube of chicken stock to the water and 1 or 2 Tablespoons tumeric). Drain rice and set aside. ( I usually steam my rice for about 5 minutes, after cooking, to make it fluffy. Leave the rice in the colander, place  a little water in  the pot used for cooking the rice, and place on the stove. Put the colander on top of the pot and cover. Steam.)  Heat the Oil and butter, add garlic, onion, spring onion, green pepper and grated carrot. Saute until onion is soft. Add this mixture to the rice and mix well. Add salt to taste. (ps. My grandkids love this rice, try it on the kiddies in your family).
