Tasty Curried Rice

Rice is one of those ingredients that you can get used to preparing in the same way all the time. Here’s a simple, and quick recipe you can use for that time when you want to spice things up, pun intended!
I used Real Premium Spices‘ Mild Curry powder, turmeric, and a touch of cayenne pepper for a little bit of a kick. This dish is pretty mild, and family friendly. If you’d like it to be a bit more hot/spicy, feel free to increase the cayenne pepper and mild curry powder quantities.
You can enjoy this rice with pretty much anything, from stews, to roasts, or stir-fries, and vegetables of your preference.
