This is a really pretty, colorful, flavorful and different side dish! I doubled the curry following the lead of previous revievers and still found it very mild, not nearly prominent enough. Curry has a delicious flavor that is not hot, so it could easily be tripled in this recipe. Leave out the raisins if you must (and as hubby would have preferred) but the toasted almonds are a must!

HELPFUL TIPS: A can of broth has 2C and since this is usually for my husband & toddlers, I halve the recipe using 3/4C rice and 3/4th a can of broth. That way I don't have to open up a second can. For 2 picky toddlers, they give this 2 thumbs up! What kid can resist rice (which is a lot like their baby food) if it contains craisins! I like them better than plain ol raisins. Also, instead of going through trouble of toasting almonds, I use "Almond Accents" found next to salads or dressings at the store. Any flavor (they have ranch, honey flavored, etc) works very well and they're already toasted and sliced! Not to mention you can use the rest of the bag to top your salads. Outside of that, this definitely needs a T of curry (used almost 2tsp if you halve the recipe), and I prefer using half oil, half butter b/c the rice turns out better and cooks the curry like other indian dishes require (for 5 minutes constant stirring). Also can do this in one pot by adding it all in while browning rice except broth, almonds, craisins.

This was delish. I used brown rice instead of white and olive oil instead of butter. I also added mushrooms. It was really good. The almonds added a really good crunch.

Oh. My. Gosh! This was AWESOME! The only thing about this recipe is that next time I have to make DOUBLE! My whole family loved it! We tripled the curry just because we felt like 1 tsp was a little mild, and next time I might add some garam marsala to heat it up a bit more (we love spicy LOL) but seriously folks...as is this is a fantastic recipe! Easy to make, I sauteed everything BUT the rice, curry, and broth in a pan until it was brown, then added a little broth to get all the yummy bits off the bottom. Then I just dumped the entire contents of the pan, plus the rice and broth, into our rice cooker and Voila! My hubby walked in and insisted on 'taste testing' right away, and between him and the kids (17, 13, and 5) we didn't have any left! Thanks so much, this just got added to our weekly menu!

Really good. Just-right seasoning and amounts of onions, raisins, and almonds. I did substitute olive oil for half of the butter. Delicious and attractive dish.

I've made this several times now, and my whole family really likes it. I've made it with both white rice and brown rice and they're both good. I double the curry powder and garlic, halve the butter, and omit the raisins. I also like to add some veggies. (a grated carrot or two, some broccoli, etc. Love the almonds - this is a great recipe!

Wow. I made this and I needlessly worried my family would not like but they LOVED it. I made it exactly as instructed in the recipe, except I put in considerably more curry powder, as I enjoy a stronger flavor. My household consists of me, my husband, two teens, one toddler and my elderly, ill father-in-law. Every single one of them had seconds or, in my son's case, thirds! Easy to make and delicious! I will definitely be making this often.

I loved this dish! Instead of green onions I used white onions. I doubled the curry powder. I added a cup of chick peas to make it more filling. And, I added the raisins in with the rice and broth to cook and soften.

Great and easy. I like to use more healthy options, so I think I'll use a wild rice blend next time, but this really had the perfect amount of seasonings and flavor. And nice and easy - thank you!

I had to leave the raisins out of this dish because I would not have liked it at all that way. Turns out, we didn't particulary care for this rice anyway. Even with added curry, the flavor is too mild. For any prominant flavor at all, you must add the almonds. This recipe seems to be a good starting point, but other seasonings need to be added to give it more taste appeal.
