Seeds and spices recipe



Recipe for seeds and spices in our easy vegetarian recipes collection.

Recipe ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon sunflower oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 6 cardamom pods, lightly crushed
  • 1 teaspoon coriander seeds, lightly crushed
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed
  • 1 cup basmati rice
  • 1 2/3 cups vegetable stock
  • 1/2 cup natural yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sunflower seeds
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Coriander leaves, to garnish

How to make seeds and spices

  • Heat the oil in a non stick frying pan and fry the spices and garlic for about 1 minute, stirring all the time.
  • Add the rice and stock, bring to the boil, then cover and simmer for 15 minutes, or until just tender.
  • Stir in the yogurt and the toasted sunflower and sesame seeds.
  • Season with salt and pepper and serve hot, garnished with coriander leaves.
  • Seeds are particularly rich in minerals, so they are a good addition to all kinds of dishes.
  • Light toasting will improve their flavour.
  • A change from plain boiled rice and a colourful accompaniment to serve with spicy curries.
  • Basmati rice gives the best texture and flavour, but you can use ordinary long grain rice instead, if you prefer.
