The difference between this and conventionally cooked rice is not obvious other than it makes you wonder why regular rice never tasted this good. I browned the onion, added the garlic, then added the rice and let it brown a little before adding the water, covering and simmering until done. A deliciously enhanced basic rice.

It was alright. Made the recipe as-is, but expected a little more.

This was ok. I ended up adding a lot more butter, garlic, and seasoning salt to make it taste like anything. I added chopped up cooked veggies and firm tofu and made it a main course. I think this is something that would be better the next day after letting it "marinate" in the fridge all night.

Good base recipe! I'm a veggie lover, so I added zuccini, grated carrots, red & green peppers, also used fresh squeezed lemons, & extra garlic. Was amazing!

Very good recipe! Like everyone else, I added 1 Tbs butter and some extra garlic. After the garlic and onions I added some frozen carrots and peas, just let them cook for about a min, they thaw fast. Then I added 1 egg and made sure it was cooked and well distributed before adding the rice. Turned out great! Everyone had seconds, didnt have any leftovers.

I felt the same as other reviewers this recipe is bland. Had to flavor it up some and add color. But overall ok.

Simple, Fast, Tasty. I added Garlic salt for a little more seasoning. Also added fresh chopped ginger and a dash of fish sauce the 2nd time I made it.
