Halal Guys Yellow Rice Recipe
Halal Guys’ yellow rice has such a vibrant color and aroma. It's the rice I use any time I'm making an international cuisine that uses rice!The secret to that signature golden hue is turmeric, and I like to use just enough to keep the balance right.Cooking the rice in chicken stock instead of water adds richness, so don’t skip that!What I enjoy about this recipe is how the rice soaks up the spices, becoming fragrant without being overwhelming.Be sure to toast the spices in the butter before adding the rice; it brings out their full potential trust me!
