Quick onion Pilaf

This is a quick way of turning yesterday’s rice into a simple flavored pilaf. It’s a little moister than a classic pulao, and quite heavily flavored. The recipe starts with plain cooked rice and tosses it with a succulent blend of simmered onions, minced ginger, and fresh jalapeños. The result is an appetizing mound of fragrant, pale-yellow rice dotted with soft tumeric-tinted onions and bright flecks of green chile, and topped with toasted cashews. Serve as a main dish with a yogurt
