The only thing I changed was to use chicken stock. The rice had a great taste and the texture was perfect. I baked it 25 minutes in the oven at 375 F. Thanks Patchwork Dragon :) Made for PAC Fall 2011

Hi, I'm Sandie. I live in London with my two little kittens (6 months at the moment...May 06)and work as a Finance Administrator in a university department. I love to cook, but live on my own so don't do as much as I used to. Like making cakes particularly.
In my spare time I read, I like to go to the theatre and cinema, I make beaded jewellery and do some patchwork & quilting and other needlework.
.....Ooh....and, of course, I love to eat out!!
