Healthy Vegan - Savoury Purple Rainbow Carrot Rice Pilau

Image
I have more autumnal coloured food coming your way, but here is one that you may want to consider making for your grown up Halloween Party.  I made this Carrot Rice Pilau with some rainbow carrots.  I was quite surprised how the purple carrots bled into the white basmati rice and tainted it with a purple hue.  It actually looked quite pretty and quite nice to eat.   As I had some left over, I decided to take some into work for lunch as a savoury rice salad dish.  You could reheat it in the microwave or eat it at room temperature. So I have decided to share it with Kahakai Kitchen .  By the way this is not the traditional way of making pilau rice that comes from the Indian Sub Continent, but it was still very flavourful.  I adapted a recipe that was also adapted by the cookboo k authors.   Other Rainbow Coloured Vegan Recipes  Savoury Chestnut, Rainbow Carrot and Lentil Cake Rainbow Carrots, Puy Lentil and Barley Salad...
