This recipe for Garlic Butter Rice uses simple ingredients such as long-grain white rice, fresh garlic, rich butter, and chicken broth to enhance the flavor. It's a straightforward and delicious way to prepare flavored rice. 

In addition to garlic and butter, I've included colored peppers, whole spices, and chicken broth. If you don't have chicken broth at home or are in a rush, you can substitute it with pulao cubes from your local grocery store.

                                              

Here is my recipe for butter garlic rice:

But I prefer using chicken/mutton broth/stock in this recipe additionally if you are a lover of chicken then can be added chicken chunks by marinating them with spices and then cooking them.

I didn’t add chicken. but I used some colorful peppers to bring to make the rice colorful. Plus it only needs a handful of ingredients you can always keep on hand it’s perfectly hearty and filling, and it’s just simply delicious comfort food!

And of course, it’s something people of all ages will enjoy. In other words, it’s one of those back-pocket recipes.

INGREDIENTS THAT ARE USED IN THE RECIPE:

Rice: rice has an important role in making the taste of any type of rice recipe whether they are Pulao, Fried Rice, Biryani, or Plain Rice if you use regular rice can’t achieve the goal of taste. so always use long-grain old basmati rice and before cooking the rice soak it just for 30 minutes. I never compromise with the taste then no matter how much it cost

Butter: use good quality butter in the recipe if it is using low quality your rice won’t develop the buttery taste or may flavor of the rice become spoiled 

Garlic: It has a pungent taste that helps to bring flavor to the meals most importantly garlic is the most beneficial for health along with its taste the reason people use garlic in their meals and baking items.use chopped garlic instead of garlic powder. Want even more garlic flavor? Use 2 tbsp garlic.

Veggies: I added some colorful peppers and green chilies to bring some flavor and taste. here you can add some desirable veggies or skip even you can add some chicken chunks

Chicken Broth: When it the time to cook pulao, steamed rice, or any plain zeera rice adding broth and stock then enhances the taste of flavored rice      

                                  

Possible Substitutes:

Brown rice can be used in place of white rice.

The vegetable broth will work in place of the chicken broth.

Unsalted butter will work in place of salt

White chickpeas work in place of veggies

Take all veggies and prepare them all as well as soak the rice for half an hour

                            

Heat the butter with olive oil we add oil because that butter burns quickly as soon it melts this is the reason we have to add oil to prevent burning butter

                                                     

Next, add chopped garlic and fry them for 2 minutes, now begin adding whole spices like black peppercorns, green cardamoms, cinnamon sticks, and cloves saute them a bit next add chopped veggies yellow pepper, green chilies, capsicum orange, and red pepper

                                                    

Fry them with garlic and butter for 2-3 minutes. meanwhile, add a bay leaf for aroma then add white pepper and salt to the veggies, keep stirring by adding the remaining ingredients chili flakes stir, to mix well then pour chicken broth or stock. whatever you have available, bring it to a boil.

                                                                         

Once boiled then add soaked rice. stir to combine carefully since soaked rice gets too delicate if we stir rapidly rice grains may break easily. At this point can adjust the spice level if needed.

                                         

Cover and cook the rice on a high flame. once the water dries out, Turn down the flame to low and simmer it for another 5 minutes

                                                    

 Turn off the flame and fluff the rice up

                                  

Then transfer onto the serving plate/bowl.

Butter garlic rice can be eaten alone but even served with Kababs or Cutlets

                                           

                                                 

Bagara Rice Recipe

Bagara Rice | Flavoured Rice || How to Make Bagara Rice with step-by-step photos 

Bagara Rice is a flavorful version of rice made with Basmati rice and fried onion. This recipe is from the popular Hyderabadi Cuisine from India. Which is known for its unique rich flavored vegetarian dishes? This cuisine has been influenced by Arab, Mughal, and Indian cuisine.

The Bagara rice recipe is simple and easy to make and still tastes like a professional chef's. This is not much popular in regular Pakistani restaurants  You don’t need to search for Pakistani restaurants to eat this food as you can make it by yourself in your kitchen. In comfort adjust the flavors to your preferences. Bagara rice with sprinkled fried onions on the top…yummm..without any further thinking, I can surrender myself.

                         

I bet you this rice could be a better dish for a weeknight dinner. The perfect Bagara rice combination curry would be Bagara Baingan or this Instant pot potato curry. Bagara Khana would be awesome to eat with chicken curry or mutton curry. Other side dishes for this simple bagara rice are bagara baingan Mirchi ka salan and tomato chutney

What is Bagara Rice?

The Bagara Rice recipe is a less spicy version of Biryani without vegetables, meat, or masalas. Which is also called bagara khana or bagara chawal in Pakistan known for its Mughal cuisine. If you are running out of time or wish to make simpler everyday food, then this recipe might be your best choice.

Though it is simpler to make, it is equally as good as Biryani. A spicier accompanied side dish elevates the flavor of this Bagara Rice. It gives the full satisfying feeling of having special biryani still made in a vegan way.

Tips:

1. To make the perfect recipe  soak the rice at least for 2 hours
2. Pour water equal to the rice quantity 
3. Long-grain rice is the best for using bagara rice 
4. For enhancing an aromatic taste can be cooked rice in pure ghee/vanaspati ghee 
5. To give a nice brownish color to rice fry the onion until turns to a golden brown color
