Crispy Turmeric Rice Salad

1

In a dry pan on medium heat, toast the slivered almonds until golden and fragrant. Make sure to move the almonds in the pan while toasting to avoid burning. Once golden, set almonds aside to cool.

Wipe out the pan and put back on the heat, add the coconut oil & turmeric and combine until glistening. Then add the rice, salt and sugar. Make sure to keep the rice in one layer to achieve the crispy texture. DO NOT STIR for 2 minutes or until the bottom is golden brown. Continue cooking on the other side and once fully crispy, drain on a kitchen towel.
