This was a great and easy side dish! I kept out a few things that wouldn't be eaten and added in some garlic. :) Thanks for the great recipe, Parsley!!

This rice is perfect. So easy to do. I used fresh mushrooms, 227 g, sliced. I used canola oil. Thanks Parsley :)

Couldn't ask for a better side dish. It was so easy and turned out to be VERY tasty. Served with Baked Chicken Wings and roast carrots. Will make this again and again. Wonderful! Thanks for posting, Parsley.

This gets a 5 star for the cooking method alone. The rice was cooked to perfection after cooking the time specified and allowing it to stand covered for an additional 5 minutes. I did use brown basmati rice which generally results in a little longer cooking time. The amount of butter was reduced to 1 tablespoon and in place of the beef consomme used beef base with the appropriate amount of water. Thanks for sharing.
