Ingredients















Preparation

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick pan on a medium heat.

Step 2

Add the garlic, leek, carrot, butternut squash and cook with the lid on for 10 minutes, or until softened. Stir occasionally.

Step 3

In a separate pan, bring the stock to simmer over a medium heat.

Step 4

When the vegetables have softened, add the turmeric and Dainty Basmati rice.

Step 5

Add the dried fruit and sauté for a couple of minutes, then add the stock. Bring to the boil whilst stirring continually.

Step 6

Once boiling, reduce to a medium heat. Cover with a tight fitting lid and cook for 15-18 minutes, or until the rice is tender and has absorbed all the liquid.

Step 7

Turn off the heat and leave the pan to one side with the lid on.

Step 8

Separately, toast the nuts in a non-stick pan over a medium heat until lightly golden. Then remove from the heat and leave on the side.

Step 9

Add the lime zest and juice to the rice mixture, while fluffing with a fork.

Step 10

When serving, scatter the nuts, parsley and crumbled feta over the top. Finish with a drizzle of yogurt.
