Ive never been able to make rice. I bake my own bread, make my own pasta dough, pizza dough, bbq sauces and marinades. I can cook just about anything but rice. Mine always turns out mushy, slightly crunchy, or both somehow. This recipe is perfect as is. Ill add beans or diced tomatoes with salsa and chiles depending on the main dish, but 24 mins plus 5 mins resting time and its always perfect. I double the recipe and use the leftovers for fried rice or arancini. Thank you for this recipe!

I do like this rice too. Being a vegetarian, I substituted the chicken stock with Maggi vegetable stock. I did not add the 1/4 tsp. of salt because the stock that I used already contains salt and the taste was fine without requiring any more in addition. I garnished this with some fresh parsley{chopped} and it went off very well for lunch with everyone at home. Thanks for posting!
