I agree, this was really good. What I loved most about it, is how easy it is - most of it thrown together in the beginning, so don't be scared off by the list of ingredients, it only takes a few minutes to get this on the stove. I also really loved the thyme, it complimented the fruity flavours beautifully. Thanks Mike, I like this fancy rice! Made for Veg Swap 16 - Nov09

This was really good. I used all White Rice and had to do some cooking adjustments. I soaked all the dried fruit in the Orange Juice for about an hour. Got 2 cups of water boiling with all the remaining ingredients and added 1 cup of rice along with the fruit and Orange Juice. Cooked for 20 minutes and it came out perfect. Lovely presentation and nice blend of flavors. Thanks for sharing!

Wow! This is good! DH wasn't too sure. He first wanted to know what this stuff was. But he kept eating it and said "this isn't to bad". After about 1/2 way through said, "this stuff grows on you". By the time he was finished eating it he gave it two thumbs up. I enjoyed the different flavors. Fruit mixed in with herbs???? Very unusual mixture of ingredients. Thanks for posting.
