    During cooking, check the rice for softness and monitor the water level. You can initially add not all the water, but only 2/3 of it. And if necessary, it can be poured into a frying pan if you see that it is a little lacking. But it will be necessary to add hot water so as not to change the temperature of the cooking dish. Serve a side dish of rice hot with any meat or fish dishes. Bon appetit!

To prepare a side dish of rice, you can use any spices, thereby giving it different flavors. In my opinion, turmeric seasoning is great for rice. She makes rice of a bright yellow color. It looks very bright, beautiful and unusual.
In addition, turmeric is also useful. It removes toxins and harmful substances from the body, helps fight viruses and bacteria, normalizes digestion.
The only contraindication for turmeric is an individual intolerance or allergy.
Therefore, use turmeric at your discretion.
