This deliciously zesty rice is filled with bright flavour. Lightly frying the rice in oil gives a slightly nutty taste and perfectly tender texture. A sprinkle of chopped fresh parsley helps to make this side dish stand out.

Hello there! I’m crazy about rice. In this recipe can I swap the rice with brown basmati rice?
Thanks 🥰🙏🏻🌷

Hiii Tatiana! Ooou yes you could 🤗 brown basmati rice just takes a little longer to cook and may need a bit more water. Happy cooking 🫶

I’ve heard about this dish for decades. Finally tried it and love how you can add or substitute anything. I put in a lot of lemon and zest with coriander. Another 5 star !
