One of the best rice recipes I've tried so far, and I had many :) I could have doubled the recipe and served it alone for dinner, there wouldn't have been one rice grain left. Thanks for sharing - if you haven't tried it yet, do it, it's utterly delicious!<br/>Made for ZWT 8 / India for the Lively Lemon Lovelies
