Oriental-Style Carrot Risotto With Raisins

"I came up with this after trying several variations of Indian carrot rice which I absolutely loved. Cooking time includes 1 hour resting time. The rice will be just warm when ready to serve. If you want it hot, gently reheat a little, but be careful not to burn it. Great with chicken and vegetables."

  1. Yummy rice recipe....I did not use brown rice, but use arborio rice for risotto. Turned out perfectly, expect I had to heat it up to serve. I did add some salt to serve. Dish looks beautiful and is wonderful with fish or chicken. Thanks for sharing! Made for "for your consideration" game in yuku.
     
  2. Very nice and easy side dish. Could benefit from a tad bit of salt, in my opinion, but good as is. :)
