Just a little tumeric tip: Black pepper contains a compound called piperine that helps to increase the rate at which turmeric is absorbed by the body. In fact, research shows that piperine can increase the bioavailability of curcumin by 2000%. So add some black pepper to your rice for a healthy kick 💫
In Sri Lanka we have a slightly different version of the same recipe. Instead of using butter we use coconut milk with ginger garlic turmeric salt pepper a couple of cloves and a couple of cardamoms. We call it yellow rice.
Apparently even a very small amount of black pepper dramatically increases the bioavailability of the beneficial compounds in turmeric, so I would definitely add some black pepper to mine! 😋
I've been using Alton Brown's Pantry Raid Rice recipe, which seems to be a basic version of this with some changes. Cooking the rice in butter until a nutty smell, then pour in near boiling water/broth. Cover, lower temp, and time for 20 min. Comes out perfect every time. Can't wait to try this version.
John, you are a treasure! I don’t know what I enjoy more, your recipes or your genuine enthusiasm for good food. It is truly one of life’s greatest pleasures and it seems that you and your lovely Michelle are enjoying it quite well. Thank you, you wonderful weirdo!
I didn’t wash the rice and followed his directions completely. Same amount of liquid he outlines. Mad temptation to stir during cooking. 🧑🍳 resisted and it came out perfectly! My rice usually sucks unless I use a rice cooker. Chef John got this spot on! My rice is now so very nice!
Try washing it next time. It really works whether you are cooking this or his tomato rice recipe (years ago on this channel) He says the same thing about cooking it covered and then letting it sit.
Cubans master all types of yellow rice recipes! We love our rice! 😅 This reminds me of my daughter’s high school friends, many of them were exchange students from Asia and they used to call my daughters lunch that would almost always contain some type of rice “ahhh, the golden rice!!!!”😮…every time she would take yellow rice.
I like to do something similar but with whole cumin seeds toasted in the butter; it makes the rice sooo fragrant and amazing with either Indian or Mexican food! Cumin is my personal favorite spice and the whole toasted seeds have such a different depth to them than just pre-ground cumin.
I gotta admit not only had I forgotten how to make buttered rice, I had never made buttered rice....... having said that it is now my wife's and I new favorite! I made this rice and Chudds BBQ Hawaiian BBQ'ed chicken and together they were perfect.
Aloha we are great rice 🍚 eaters here in Hawaii. We do all sorts of things to rice. As for washing rice 🍚, I believe that it depends on what rice you are using. If you have rice with a lot of talcum it needs to be washed and drained well before making this dish. The moisture from the washed well drained rice should not be a problem. 😊🌴🌺
I was wondering about that when he just poured the rice 🤔 I thought you had to wash it first basmati is made more like noodles so you don’t wash it before you wash after but this recipe skipped that step I think
@@CliftonCosta Thanks for your info 👍 about the Starch vs talc. Glad you are up on it. I'm old school on somethings like washing rice to rid it of additives. Reading ingredients is major. Glad you educated me. Much Mahalo 🌴
My eyes popped out of my head when that whole stick of butter landed in the pan! Thanks for the permission! Imma make it today! "Rice is okay, if you want to eat two thousand of something." -- Steve Wright
This reminds me of a dish I've been making for a few years! I fry a ton of minced garlic in the pan, then add turmeric and black pepps, then add the rice to fry until it's golden brown. Then I add the cold water, scrape the brown bits off the bottom, then cover my instant pot and set it on Rice. I use half the amount of butter for the frying, and then I melt in the other half after it's cooked, and stir in fresh chopped parsley. The colors are beautiful just like this thumbnail
You need black pepper to give the turmeric more absorbtion of benefits compounds. I would use 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of black pepper. 1 carrot , 1 onion, and a bit less butter. Looks delicious and healthy. Thank you for sharing. 😁😁😘😘🥰🥰.
I Made this today and it was fantastic ... So simple Yet so flavourful !!!! I put toasted black Sesame seeds at the end for taste and color contrast! Thanks for the recipe!
I will definitely try this, your Rice-A-Roni recipe is fabulous. I make it When we have friends over for dinner, and they love it also like your French onion soup recipe just made that a couple days ago and shared it with family and friends and they loved it. Thank you so much.
This method is just perfect. Thats how you cook it..Chef John has mastered it, like all the other recipes. I would like to do 2 things differently: 1. While adding water, i check the seasoning. The saltiness of water decides the saltiness of the final rice. 2. When most of the water is absorbed, I like to bring out the bottom rice to the top and top one goes to the bottom. This ensures even cooking....this has to be handled lightly. Each Grain is precious. Definitely gonna try this soon
I love when do cuisine mash-ups! I mean, who thinks of making Haldi Doodh (Golden Milk) rice? Brilliant. My husband is from Mumbai and I called him over to watch this with me once you mentioned the inspiration. We are both excited for me to make it.
I'm trying this recipe later this week for sure. You made it somewhat differently than how I make rice normally, so I want to try it exactly how you made it. I normally fry my rice in a little olive oil and season it with salt. For white rice, I add water. Otherwise I fry some garlic in the oil first and add broth, sometimes with saffron. I'll then boil the water until most of the moisture is absorbed before turning heat to low and covering, quickly fluff after 15 min, then let it rest for 5-10 min before serving.
This man changed my rice cooking nightmare to a new found success. My wife loves our rice, and is hesitant to try a change. But, I will press on, and try, what seems to be an upgrade to our rice experience.
I made this tonight along with your chicken broccoli curry and it was fantastic. ❤😊 My picky eater loved the rice. I've made the chicken dish before but the butter rice took it to a whole new level. Thank you so much. 😊❤
Thanks for not pivoting to “Chef John tries 40 different fast food nuggets” or “Chef John’s breakfast cereal tier list” nonsense like so many cooking UA-cam channels have lately.
Chef John, coincidentally I've been cooking and perfecting this exact recipe in recent weeks. There is a simple change, relating to the water, than I 100% guarantee takes things to the next level.
OK, Chef J. I grew up on rice. I’m a Texas girl been eating it for more than 60 years, this is absolutely hands-down 1000% the best rice I’ve ever put in my mouth. I didn’t think that was possible! Thank you so much ❤️
Mmmm I will definitely be making this! I make butter rice by browning a couple tablespoons of butter, then frying the rice a bit in the butter, adding chicken stock and cooking for 25 minutes, off the heat for another 5 before opening and fluffing.
I'm embarrassed to admit that for 30 years, all I could make was rice that was somehow both soggy and burnt, then one day I watched a Gordon Ramsey video on how to make plain white rice. Now I can make nearly perfect rice every time. Not because Ramsey had some secret technique, but because I realized I just plain didn't know what I was doing for 30 years.
The large bulk bags of rice are supposed to be washed. The smaller 1-2 lb packages are already clean and should NOT be washed. (At least in the United States.)
If you're buying 'enriched' rice (like most in the US), it has already been washed and vitamins and minerals have been sprayed on them. Additional washing is unneeded, and actually removing valuable nutrition.
I'm really looking forward to making this! I too am a fan of around the outside, round the outside, around the outside, and I say it along with you every time! 😊
I made this according to the recipe....that's a lot of ginger, anyhow I served it with lamb shanks with saba (chef john) and the two really complimented each other. awesome.
I like to add various whole spices to dishes like this. Fresh lime leaves are particularly aromatic, and any combination of whole cardamom pods, cloves, cinnamon etc will also lift it.
@@shaunhall284 Who asked YOU? Too bad for you that your mommy locked you in the basement and won't give you any attention. From what I can see, you deserve that.

So simple and so delicious! I nailed it the first time. Chef John is consistently the only internet chef whose recipes I never alter in any way.
Love your videos and your chatter. Recipes are great and you are hilarious. Thank you.

I want to adapt this for my pressure cooker... Going to need to make curry again soon...
Why use a pressure cooker to make something that only takes 20 minutes?
My very first perfect rice. And the flavor was delectable. Fork don't lie! Much love!
I'm Turkish. We always cook the rice in oil first before pouring water over it.
I would hit it with lemon zest in the butter before adding the rice and use chicken stock
Oh I love this kind of lid! I never even considered it but that would really be a huge help to my anxiety about what's going on in there!
I can’t stop making this rice!
Made this tonight. As always, it was spot on!
Looks amazing. I’m a little stuck on the half stick of butter, but I can just imagine how luscious it is.
That was a whole stick of butter. (Sorry. . . . )
That’s perhaps the reason for all the “healthy” spices lol
Oh man, drool overdrive !

Remember my friends to ALWAYS add black pepper when you use turmeric, because it helps your body to absorb the anti-oxidants in the turmeric!😃
2 cups of rice, go round the outside, round the outside, round the outside!😂😂😂
Looks good. 😊
Had long grain brown rice so it took another 10 minutes cook time. No turmeric either so used paprika. Tasty.
