We have been making this rice for ages together. I had "ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA" that this is a variation of Brazilian pilaf! WOW:) I have made rice this way also by substituting the water with Maggi vegetable broth with onions. Its DELICIOUS!!! This is an easy and wonderful side dish! Thanks for posting! I can't stop smiling thinking that this is a variation of Brazilian pilaf;)

Made this tonight as a side for my BBQ pork ribs. I rate it 5 for ease of preparation and 3 for flavor, so 4 overall. I used basmati rice because I had it on hand, gave it a nice nutty flavor. I cooked the rice until pretty much all of it was golden brown and then added the water, be careful it boils big time when added. I may try it again with the long grain rice to see if I enjoy it any more. I enjoy trying new recipes so thanks for posting it Ekives.

Ahhh!!!!! This rice is *SO* good!!! I couldn't stop eating it! My best friend's mom used to make pretty much the same thing when we were little, and she taught me how to make it just like this recipe, when I was 11 or so. Made it tonight, only I added a pinch of chicken bouillon and used butter instead of oil. It had the most terrific nutty flavour to it, and I'd deffffffinitely recommend this recipe to anybody!
