Step by step
Method
Smoked rice is assertive, so saffron only needs to color a small portion. Raisins turn bitter over high heat; sauté them briefly and separately. Serve beside chicken, fish or grilled vegetables.
- 01
Rinse and soak the rice in salted water for 30 minutes.
- 02
Bloom saffron in 3 tbsp boiling water.
- 03
Parboil the rice, then drain.
- 04
Steam over low heat for 35–40 minutes.
- 05
Sauté raisins with a spoon of butter and optional sugar for only 60 seconds.
- 06
Color one scoop of rice with saffron and spoon it over the platter with raisins.

Chef tips
- Saffron only part of the rice so the smoked aroma still leads.
- Sauté raisins no longer than one minute.
