This is a copycat recipe I found for this amazing rice, it works perfectly with a nice savory pulled pork that I use for making burritos. But it really is good enough to have on it's own. *edit* I will have to revisit this recipe soon and come up with more precise measurements and possibly using more generic rice.

vegetable oil butter

cilantro

white basmati rice

water

salt

lime

In a 2-quart heavy saucepan, heat oil or butter over low heat, stirring occasionally until melted.

Add rice and lime juice, stir for 1 minute.

Add water and salt, bring to a full rolling boil.(Some people have had success with 1 cup of water, but when I've made it with 2 it worked for me).

At boiling, cover, turn down to simmer over low heat until rice is tender and the water is absorbed, about 25 minutes.

Add in the cilantro and fluff rice with a fork.

Recipe is totally wrong. It's 1 cup of rice per 2 cups of water. 2/3 rice and 1 &quot;or&quot; 2 cups of water is absurd. 10 to 15 minutes should be sufficient time to cook the rice. Unless you rinse and soak your rice. Juice of 1 lime. But I've found that if you boil the lime juice it looses all the flavor. I add it last with the cilantro.
