Herbed Garlic Rice is one of the easiest rice dish to make. It is seasoned with herbs and tossed in butter. The best part of this dish is, it makes a great use of leftover plain rice. Garlic tossed in butter and addition of aromatic herbs to season the rice uplifts the flavour making it different from the usual dish of rice tossed with spices. Not too mention it is super healthy. The dish can be made with our without vegetables. Served this with grilled Chicken/ lamb chops/fish, Smoked Tofu and sautéed veggies.
