Serves:
Ingredients
- 1 cup white rice
- 1 can (15 oz) white beans, drained and rinsed
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- Salt and pepper to taste
- For the garlicky yogurt sauce:
- 1 cup plain yogurt
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- Salt to taste
Instructions
-
Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Drain and set aside.
-
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, and cook until softened and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
-
Add the rice to the skillet and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
-
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the rice is tender and all the liquid is absorbed.
-
In a separate bowl, combine the yogurt, minced garlic, fresh lemon juice, and salt. Mix well and set aside.
-
Once the rice is cooked, remove from heat and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes.
-
Fluff the rice with a fork, then gently stir in the white beans and chopped dill.
-
Serve the pilaf hot with a dollop of the garlicky yogurt sauce on top.
