It was very easy to prepare, with an interesting flavor. After the first step, I cooked mine in the rice cooker. It was a good rice dish. I made this again today, using olive oil, and the flavor was not compromised. Thank you for sharing your recipe.

The carrots gave the rice a strange, sweet flavor. My family didn't care for this.

This was ok. I think it has potential, but we thought it tasted rather bland. While I'm not sure what I would add to give it more flavour, I think adding at least a tsp of salt in the simmering stage would be better than at the end. It's certainly something that will go well with many dishes.

Very tasty side sidedish. I didn't have the green onions so I picked some chives from my garden. Tasted wonderful! Thank you for the great recipe.
