My original review on 3/23/11 gave this recipe 4 stars but after making it again tonight, using butter and increasing cook time to 30 min, its definitely a 5 star. The rice was cooked to perfection. Thanks for sharing. My go to recipe for white rice now. ! -
When I made the rice this way I thought it came out a little too moist. So I upped the rice to 3/4 cup and left the water at 1 cup and thought it turned out very nice.

My name is Jill. When I discovered Recipezaar, and that you can 'sort' recipes by 'rating' it really got my attention. I am building a collection of five star (rated by 100 or more users on this site) :) recipes. This is quite an improvement over frozen entrees from the microwave for lunch!!! I tell everyone I can about this site, so they can reap the benefits too!
