vegetable broth
🥗Healthier: water
💰Cheaper: chicken broth

olive oil
🥗Healthier: coconut oil
💰Cheaper: vegetable oil
Coconut oil adds flavor and is a healthier fat option.
Add vegetable oil and butter to a pan and melt the butter.
Add one medium-sized white onion, chopped, and three sliced garlic cloves to the pan.
Sauté the onion and garlic until the onions are translucent and the garlic is slightly brown.
Add 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder and toast for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add 2 cups of rinsed jasmine rice to the pan and mix until incorporated, about 1-2 minutes.
Pour in 4 cups of water and mix well until combined.
Add 1 teaspoon of salt and mix again.
Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat without covering the pan until the water evaporates.
Once the water is almost gone, reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and cook until the rice is done.
Fluff the rice with a fork before serving.
