Preparation Steps
1
Rinse the jasmine rice thoroughly in cold water until the water runs clear. This helps remove excess starch, ensuring the rice stays fluffy.
2
In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil with a pinch of salt, then add the rice. Cover and simmer over low heat for 12-15 minutes, or until the rice is fully cooked and the water is absorbed.
3
While the rice is cooking, thinly slice the red cabbage and finely chop the red onion and garlic.
4
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the red onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes, until translucent.
5
Add the garlic and cumin seeds, then sauté for another minute until fragrant.
6
Add the sliced red cabbage to the skillet and sauté over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, until slightly softened but still crisp-tender.
7
Pour the cooked rice into the skillet and stir to combine with the sautéed red cabbage and spices.
8
Season with freshly ground black pepper and sprinkle with finely chopped fresh parsley before serving.
