1/2 cup toasted nuts (pine nuts, slivered
almonds, cashews, etc.)
2 tbsp chopped parsley (optional)
1/4 cup golden raisins (optional)
1/4 cup pomegranate seeds (optional)
Directions
Add the oil and onions to a medium-sized pot set over medium heat. Season with a pinch of salt and cook until the onions are translucent, about 8-10 minutes.
Add the ginger, tomato paste, carrots, kabsa masala, turmeric, cardamom pieces, cinnamon sticks, ground cinnamon, dried lemons/limes, black pepper, and salt. Cook until carrots soften and the mixture turns fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the canned diced tomatoes, rice, and vegetable stock. Bring to an even boil, give it a gentle stir, cover, and reduce to the lowest heat setting. Cook until the rice fully absorbs the water, about 10-15 minutes.
Uncover, place a clean kitchen towel or paper towel under the lid, and cover again. Allow to continue fluffing for another 10 minutes.
