SERVES 5 -6
- 1 1/2 cups Uncle Ben's converted brand rice
- 1/4 cup butter
- 3 cups water or chicken broth
- 2 cups total of your favorite dried fruits (I use pine nuts, apricots, slivered almonds, currants and golden raisins) or nuts, chopped into small pieces customize this part as you wish (I use pine nuts, apricots, slivered almonds, currants and golden raisins)
- Put rice and broth into a pot and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to simmer. Cover until the liquid is gone (about 20 min).
- In a saute pan, melt the butter and add the dried fruit and nuts. Be careful not to burn the butter.
- When the rice is done, put it in a large bowl and top it with the fruit and nut mixture.
- Optionally, you may want to toast the nuts in a dry pan to help bring out more of their flavor.
