Brussels Sprouts Pilaf
Adding any kind of vegetable to rice only makes it better. From cabbage to tomatoes to herbs, the flavor of the vegetables just amplifies the flavor of the rice, especially if using long grain basmati rice.

Directions
Step 1
Rinse the basmati rice with tap water 3 to 4 times then soak for a couple of hours. If soaking for longer, refrigerate the soaked rice.
Step 2
Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a bowl, combine the Brussels with leeks, olive oil, black pepper and sea salt. Spread on a baking pan and roast in the oven for 5 to 7 minutes or until they have some color at the edges yet remain bright green.
Step 3
In the meanwhile, in a stockpot combine the drained rice with 2 cups of water, salt and cinnamon sticks. Bring to a boil then cover and simmer.
Step 4
As soon as all the water has been absorbed ~ roughly 7 to 8 minutes, turn the heat off. Let the rice rest for about 5 minutes then add the roasted Brussels and currants, then cover the dish for another 10 minutes.
Step 5
Stir gently before serving.
