Hiya Lynn: I found a small mom-and-pop Indian grocery in my city, and buy the brand Daawat, and saw several other good brands. I've read that most Indian basmati is grown in Pakistan, but never researched that. Basmati smells fragrant, nutty. It's been bred for lengthening as it cooks, and for scent and flavor. Always long and fluffy, separate grains at least when I cook it. The bag costs about $17 for 10 lbs, or $1.70 a pound. It's been aged longer. If you have an East Indian community in your town or any Indian restaurants, if you can't find an Indian or international grocery, call and ask them where they shop. Maybe a Hindu or Sikh temple can help. And during this trying time, it might even be safer to buy online, rather than risking your health in public for a sack of rice!

This to me is the perfect type of everyday recipe and I can really use more like this. It has few enough ingredients that you can remember everything without having to refer back to the recipe. It's hearty, cheap, easy and tasty, and it's stuff I normally already have and can easily find substitutes in my pantry that won't dramatically alter the outcome. It's also one of those fun recipes you can experiment with.

Chef John, I’m sure you wont see this but I just wanted to say thank you for this recipe. Sadly I have learned that I have several dietary issues (gluten intolerance, fat intolerance and dairy intolerance... basically onset IBS) resulting in me not being able to eat like 70% of the food at my house that I stocked up on so I have been pretty miserable and not eating much. For example last night I literally had a small baked potato with just salt and pepper. No butter. No sour cream. Just salt and pepper. But this recipe helped me find something that I can make at home and enjoy eating and not be as miserable the next day. I subbed the sour cream with fresh squeezed lime juice and it was still amazing for such a simple dish. And I have plenty of leftovers! Thank you again for making my day just a little bit better during these challenging times.

Actually you could, funny enough, some people add foil between the lid and pot to improve the seal, but you could use a towel.

I made this! Or I used this technique. Dropped the rice to 2 cups, upped the stock to 3 cups, bulked it out with toasted walnuts, pumpkin and sunflower seeds, sautéed leeks, onion, mushrooms and garlic as well as a tin of sweet corn for a complete meal. Topped with crumbled feta cheese. It was so delicious and made at least 8 portions. Rice separated out beautifully and the cumin and chilli was not overpowering. Thanks for a delicious, super easy technique Chef John!

@Anniehtv A slightly longer time in the oven for the brown rice to get tender probably won't be so much as to overcook the salsa and beans. I would try that first, and then with the next batch, start out in the oven with the rice and broth mixture, and wait about 15-20 minutes before adding salsa and beans to finish the cooking. See which method comes out better, taste and texture.

Saw a video on here where the guy put brown rice in a blender it takes off the bran and makes it white rice.

EB: Well, how did you think they get white rice? They mill off the outer brown nutritious part, including the bran, and what is left is the white inner part! White rice isn't white until it's milled.

Your videos always make me smile 😃. Thank you Chef John.

Another stellar recipe. Thanks so much.
