This is a delicious rice pilaf! When I went to make it I discovered I didn't have any long grain rice so I substituted basamati rice and used only 2 cups of water. I also didn't have any almonds, so used toasted cashews. I also used a mixture of golden and regular sultana raisins. My husband and I enjoyed it very much. Thanks!
