Anybody tried this yet?
I will try it tomorrow and let you know 🙂
I love it when all the ingredients are in my kitchen.
As promised I did try this today. It came out really well.
I substituted basmati rice for jasmine rice. And olive oil instead of vegetable oil. And I used water instead of chicken broth because I just finished my chicken broth on another one of Ericas receipes.
I’ll definately make this again.
Thanks Erica!
That reminds me – I need to replace the oil in this recipe. You did the right thing, here.
