Turmeric Yellow Rice

By Sweetpeasandsaffron

This turmeric yellow rice is full of aromatic flavors and makes an elegant side dish! It is simple to make and can be cooked in a rice cooker or on the stove top.

Is rice a staple in your house? It is most certainly a staple in ours. We eat rice 2-3 times per week, and I’m on a mission to jazz it up a bit…no more boring plain rice!

This turmeric yellow rice is one of my favorites in the bunch, and it was my 4-year old Kai’s favorite recipe. He always asks if we can have the ‘yellow rice’ again…how I love to hear that!

Not only is it delicious, but it’s super easy to throw together. Traditional yellow rice recipes require chopping and sauteeing, but I’ve cut a few corners so that we can have this prepped and cooking in under 5 minutes, and we can even make it in the rice cooker, too!
