Very light and flavorful rice. I ringed my rice ahead of time to ensure it would turn out fluffy. I used shallots and turmeric since I am not a huge fan of curry. I did also add a little salt but otherwise wouldn't change a thing. Served with grilled pork tenderloin and fresh green beans. Made for Everyday Holiday.

Yummy! I did not have chives so omitted. I followed the directions but used my rice cooker and butter instead of margarine with the tumeric option, and it turned out quick and delicious. I will be making this again. The aroma was intoxicating and taste was delicate and mild. Beautiful color. I used 2 cups of jasmine rice and one can of chicken broth. Perfect. THANK YOU.

Very fortunate to have a cherished son, wonderful daughter in law and adorable granddaughter and cute wee grandson. We are very blessed.
A big thank you to everyone that has made my recipes... hope you enjoyed them.
