I had this rice with rendang from Moh's stall at the Katanning Harmony Festival.

It was so good, rice could never be the same for me again.  I wanted to make it myself.  I demanded that Moh share his prized Secret Family Recipe.  I pestered him relentlessly.  Finally I extracted it from him under torture. I whistled the Chicken Song over and over again  until Moh told me exactly how to make this delicious dish.  Then I sang Achy Breaky Heart until he gave his consent for me to publish it on my blog.

So here, with permission, is Moh's secret recipe.

Saffron Nasi Minyak

  • 1 medium onion
  • Garlic
  • Star anise
  • A few cloves
  • two tablespoons butter
  • 4 cups rice – long grain/Basmati
  • A good pinch of Saffron threads
  • Salt
  1. Blend the onion and garlic to a paste  (I had to add a little water)
  2. Crack the star anise and fry it for a minute in the butter
  3. Add the onion, garlic and cloves and sauté for a few minutes
  4. Put the mixture in the rice cooker with the rice
  5. Add the requisite amount of salt and water and turn on the cooker
  6. When the rice is nearly cooked (water almost gone) poke holes in the rice with a chopstick or similar tool,  and insert a little saffron in each hole
  7. Cover and leave to finish cooking
  8. Stir and serve.

When I first made this, I had a guest round for dinner.  It came out beautifully, but I forgot to take a photograph.  So I had to make it again this evening for the blog.  And because I really like it.  On my second try I could not help tweaking it a bit as I always seem to do.   I substituted a few shallots for the onion and added a few cardamom pods to the spices.  I think it is as good as Moh's original, perhaps even better.  Andrew came in while I was processing the photo to upload.  Before I knew it, he had eaten half of the rice.  He then took half of what remained home with him.  No greater compliment than that.

Serve with rendang  or a nice stir fry or maybe with green curry.

Nasi Minyak - Ghee Rice (Nasi Minyak) - The Cooking Jar

Ghee Rice (<b>Nasi Minyak</b>) - The Cooking Jar

Ghee Rice

Here's a simple but fragrant rice which goes great with rich, flavorful dishes while still boasting a presence of its own. Shallots, ginger and garlic are sauteed in ghee along with cinnamon, cloves and green cardamom to release a wonderful aroma that will uplift your kitchen. Raisins and cashew nuts provide a juicy and crunchy texture. You will love it! This is a family recipe and another one of those dishes that make me think of home.

Ghee Rice

I usually cook this in a rice cooker. I've never understood why people painstakingly cook rice over the stove. I've done it with risotto and it was torture.  You don't have to baby sit it, your arm won't fall off with the constant stirring and the bottom doesn't burn in the rice cooker. If you are serious about delving into Asian cuisine, do yourself a favor and go buy one of these. You can thank me later. This wikihow article explains the basics of how to cook rice with one, so you're good to go.

I grew up using the finger method of measuring the rice to water ratio after my mom taught me somewhere around the age of 10. Since then, it's become second nature to me and I have never had to think about actual measurements until now. Shake a rice pot filled with rice and water gently from side to side to even and level out the rice. Stick a finger vertically into the pot and measure the height of rice from the bottom of the pot to the top of the rice. Mark it with your thumb. Now move your finger (with the thumb still marking the spot) and rest it on top of the leveled rice and measure the height from the top of the rice to the top of the water. The water level should be equal to or 1/2 inch more to the measurements from the bottom of the pot to the top of the rice. Easy right? Who needs a measuring cup?

Ghee rice goes well with Cucumber Pickled Salad (Acar Timun) and Minangkabau Beef. The tender, spiced beef with coconut undertones meld with the fresh cucumber and sweet pineapple juices from the salad on a base of fragrant rice. What's not to love? The combined aroma of these three in the kitchen always brings back the nostalgia of home. What food scents remind you of home?
