HEALING TURMERIC KANJEE

4 servings, 30 minutes

INGREDIENTS

• 3/4 cup basmati rice

• 5-6 cups water

• 1/4 tsp turmeric powder

• 1 tsp salt

• 1 tbsp ghee

• Freshly ground black pepper for topping

• Freshly squeezed lime or lemon juice for topping

DIRECTIONS

1. Add rice to a blender and pulse just enough to break up the pieces (not into a fine powder but into a small/ chopped up rice consistency).

2. Rinse the rice under water using a fine mesh strainer until the water runs clear.

3. Place the rice in a large pot with the turmeric and water.

4. Bring to a boil, reduce to simmer, cover and allow to cook for about 30 minutes (until rice is soft).

5. Stir in the ghee and salt and a pinch of black pepper at the end of cooking. Serve warm with a spritz of lime of lemon juice.

Notes

• Kanjee - with the effect of Tums - but as a delicious rice porridge.

• Have this meal when you are experiencing diarrhea, hyperacidity, nausea, indigestion, or overall an upset stomach.

• This makes a great breakfast for pittas during summer time. Sometimes, I even like it with an egg on top :).
