At Healthy Recipes, I have been looking for good basmati rice recipes so I can get my complex carbohydrate, protein and great flavor and enjoy eating this rice. So I have found what I call an Exotic Basmati Rice recipe.
INGREDIENTS:
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp cumin seeds
1/2 tsp curry powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
6 cloves garlic
4 cups water
4 cups basmati rice
2 tsp sea salt
NEXT TO DO:
Using a 3 quart sauce pan, heat to a medium high with extra virgin oil.
Add cumin seeds, curry and cinnamon powder and heat for one minute.
Stir in basmati rice and sea salt.
Reduce heat to simmer, put cover on for about 15 – 20 minutes until all the liquid disappears and rice is tender.
Exotic Basmati Rice recipe is recommended as a side dish, but I often feel like making a meal out of rice and add fresh or frozen fresh vegetables on top and will pre-fry some cod or halibut and serve with lemons and parsley as garnish.

This is a great healthy recipe to end your day with.

When Healthy Recipes says this is the easiest recipe to make, we really mean it. There are just five ingredients. Add a sprinkling of sea salt and freshly ground pepper before cooking the salmon
INGREDIENTS
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon Kikkoman sauce
- Fresh dill greens chopped finely
- Freshly ground pepper and sea salt to taste 4 (1-inch-thick) fresh or frozen salmon steaks
FOLLOW ME:
Combine the lime or lemon juice and Kikkoman sauce.To broil, place the salmon steaks on a greased broiler rack and brush the lime juice over the salmon ; then sprinkle the dill all over steaks. If the steaks are frozen, microwave them to thaw them properly, according to package directions. Place in the pre-heated broiler 4 inches from the heat and broil for 10 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. If desired, garnish with lime or lemon slices.To bake, place the salmon steaks in a strong piece of tin foil, then on a baking sheet and brush the lime juice over the salmon steaks. Bake in 350-degree-F oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.A Citrus Juicer(Black & Decker have a simple one) helps you squeeze every last drop from lemons and limes.This is my favorite simple salmon steak dinner entree and have it about 3 times a week. Enjoy!
If you like breaking out your fly rod and hitting the river for an afternoon of fishing this is a great way to cook your catch.
Serve with your favorite steamed vegetables and on a bed of your favorite rice.
