Truly a wonderful recipe Savvy. We really enjoyed this savory rice. It was quick and easy to make with excellent results. The rice was perfectly cooked, and beautifully flavored. The spice ratio was spot on. I made exactly as written but without the mushrooms, as we were out. I can't wait to make this again with the mushrooms. I used basmati rice and sweet vidalli onions. Thank you for sharing a recipe that I will make again and again. Made for Spring PAC/2012.
