Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 3/4 cup jasmine rice
- 2 teaspoons butter or ghee
- 2 cups bone broth
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- 2 teaspoons fresh cilantro, chopped (plus more for garnish)
Instructions
- Rinse rice: Place the jasmine rice in a mesh sieve and rinse it under cold water for at least 1 minute to remove excess starch, which helps prevent the rice from becoming sticky.
- Combine ingredients: Transfer the rinsed rice to a large saucepan. Add the butter or ghee and pour in the bone broth to infuse the rice with rich flavor.
- Simmer: Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the saucepan, reduce the heat to low, and simmer gently for 20 to 23 minutes or until all the broth is fully absorbed by the rice.
- Fluff and season: Remove the saucepan from heat. Fluff the rice gently with a fork to separate the grains. Stir in the chopped cilantro and season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with additional cilantro before serving.
Notes
- Rinsing the rice helps remove excess starch and prevents clumping.
- You can substitute ghee or butter based on dietary preferences.
- Bone broth adds extra depth and nutrition to plain rice, making it more savory and filling.
- Adjust the amount of bone broth if you prefer softer or firmer rice, but keep the liquid-to-rice ratio close to 2:0.75 cups.
- For added flavor, consider sautéing onions or garlic before adding rice and broth.
