Step 1
Start by preparing your ingredients. Peel the carrots and grate on the coarse side of the box grater. Finely dice onion and finely chop or mince the garlic.
Step 2
In a medium sized saucepan with a lid, melt the butter and saute the onion over medium heat for a few minutes. Add the grated carrot, garlic and a pinch of salt and gently cook, stirring often for 5 minutes or until the carrot is tender and sweet.
Step 3
Add the rice and toast for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it starts to brown and crackle. Add the stock, turmeric and salt, and mix well. Bring to simmering point and then cover, lower the heat and cook undisturbed for 15 minutes.
Step 4
Turn off the heat, fluff rice with a fork, cover again and then let sit for another 10 minutes or so. Transfer to a serving bowl, garnish with coriander leaves, if using, and serve.
