Bread and Rice
Method
Preparation
- 1
Cook Basmati Rice
Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, water, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for an additional 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.

Prepare the Bread
While the rice is cooking, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Arrange the assorted bread slices on a baking sheet. Brush each slice lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with herbs if desired. Bake in the preheated oven for 5-10 minutes, or until the bread is warm and slightly crispy.

Serve
Once the rice and bread are ready, transfer the fluffy basmati rice to a serving bowl and arrange the bread slices on a platter. Serve warm.
