Buttered Wine Rice

**Mandy**'s Note:

From a Women's Weekly Dinner Party Cookbook. A nice change from plain rice! If you have any leftovers, add some cooked peas, canned tuna & some cream for an easy tuna rice dish, yum!

I don't know if "Mandy" is still on this site, but I am glad that I discovered this outstanding Rice Recipe!I use 5 T Butter and it did take longer to get my rice done.This will be cooked a lot. Thanks for posting.

I made this tonight as a practice run for Christmas dinner. I'm glad I did. This recipe simply didn't work well. Although I liked the flavor the wine added, I didn't care for the butter. It was too overwhelming. Also, my rice never fully cooked and the last step took more like 20 minutes. I rarely make rice anymore, but if I do, I might just add wine to the water.

I'm sorry, but we really didn't like this much at all. I don't know why, but it just had a flavour that wasn't appealing to us. I really thought it would be something we would all love, based on the ingredients.
