This version from chef and cookbook author JJ Johnson relies on the dyeing power of turmeric for its golden glow. A little garlic powder and store-bought fried onions (which we like just as much as homemade ones, don\u2019t tell anybody) bring in lots of savory flavor, meaning you can simply use water as the cooking medium.
