SIDE Farro Pilaf with Currants, Carrots & Curry

Cook

Total

Yield 8-10 servings

We had this recently at one of our favorite Middle Eastern restaurants during a team meeting.  The curry works so well with the farro, and the currants add a pop of flavor, complementing the crunch of grated carrots.  

The best part?  Everything gets added into your rice cooker (or stove top saucepan) at once, making prep and clean up easy!

Ingredients

2 cups farro (or any grain you like)

1 cup currants (or raisins)

2 cups grated carrots

1 Tbsp curry powder

1 quart water, chicken stock or vegetable broth

1 tsp salt

1/2 bunch cilantro, rinsed and chopped

Instructions

Notes

*Make sure if cooking on the stove top to check covered farro often.  If all of the liquid has absorbed but the farro is not yet tender, add more liquid 1/2 cup at a time until farro is done.
