Meaty Turmeric Rice Recipe

Meaty Turmeric Rice

Turmeric is actually a spice that has been in Turkish cuisine for centuries, but has recently become more popular. You can combine turmeric, which is one of the main spices recommended for health, with rice with its fragrant smell and yellow color, and you can offer it as a different alternative for those who are bored with classic pilafs. Bon Appetit!
