This rice is on an oldie but goodie that always satisfies. Make it in minutes in one pan!
I once offered to cook a side dish for a sheva berachot about 16 years ago. I remember distinctly that it was a time when doing anything was hard, even dinner for my own family, let alone volunteering to cook for someone else’s simcha. I had no idea why I agreed to a task I was clearly not up to. I must have been pregnant, or right after a birth. I don’t really recall. What I do remember is calling my sister, who always knows what to do in every situation, and she had just the recipe I needed. This rice was so easy and so tasty, it became a hit and a keeper.
And guess what? For months after the event, people called to ask for “that fabulous rice recipe.”
