Saffron Rice Stuffing Recipe • An Elegant & Tasty Side! | Club Foody

 

With most main courses you can’t get away from serving them without a side dish. They wrap up the meal so nicely. It can be BreadPastaVegetablesRice, etc.
 
When it comes to rice, I have a few side dish recipes I enjoy making often like Indian Basmati with Dry FruitsMexican RiceHerb & Butter Rice, plain White Rice, Wild Rice Pilaf with Porcini, Cranberries and Toasted Almonds, and many more as well as main ones like Mushroom Risotto, Chicken Fried Rice, Spanish PaellaRed Beans and Rice ~ Slow CookerChicken Ham Sausage Jambalaya, etc.
 
There’s another one that we really like and it’s my Saffron Rice Stuffing! Why do I call it “stuffing”? It’s because I love to serve it with my Crown Roast of Pork which is coming up in a couple of days. I spoon a fair amount of it in the center of the crown. It makes the dish pop with its bright colors! I also serve it along with my Holiday Turkey. It’s a nice change from my other stuffing recipes like Old Fashioned Stuffing with Giblets and Turkey Stuffing coming on December 23th, 2021.
 
The first thing I do is to toast my slivered almonds for a few minutes on medium heat, tossing often. If you want to cut the cost of buying them at the store, simply blanch your almonds and then finely slice them. To learn how, click on this link… Blanched Almonds ~ How to.
 
As the title indicates, I use saffron threads. Yes I know they’re quite expensive but it’s so worth it especially when paired with an elegant main course. I also add fruits to my Saffron Rice Stuffing like apples, golden raisins and cranberries. Surprisingly, this side is not overly sweet with a nice savory hint in the background.
 
Like most rice recipes, this Saffron Rice Stuffing is easy to make plus it’s so flavorful! It’s elegant, packed with yumminess and visually appealing. It’s definitely a keeper when you want to elevate your rice and pair it with a main course…
Bon Appétit!
