Reading over alot of these recipes that you guys have has given me alot of ideas, and also helps me understand what safron will work with.
I have my own recipe to add...
1 cup Basamati Rice
2 teaspoons Tumeric
2 teaspoons ginger powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin powder
salt and pepper
1 Onion chopped
1 Green Pepper chopped
2 pinches of safron
2 tablespoons boiled water
1 3/4 cups cold water
Olive Oil
Pour the Cold water into a pot, add the rice and 1 pinch of the safron, 1 teaspoon of tumeric and 1 teaspoon of ginger, cover bring to a boil, reduce to a medium heat and let simmer covered for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and leave covered for 15 minutes.
In a deep frypan or wok, add the olive oil and turn stove to a medium heat, when hot enough toss the chopped onion in, once the onions begin to sweat, add the green pepper and the rest of the tumeric and ginger, then add the cumin. Place the safron into the 2 tablespoons of boiling water, and let sit for 2 minutes. Add the safron and water mixture into the sauce pan and stir. add the rice to the vegtable mixture and stir. Remove from heat and serve.
Seems like alot of work but it;s not really, and it tastes really good.
I call it Matt's Golden Safron Rice
