It was quite a baking day today. We baked pav buns for dinner and also a big batch of crescent rolls. Given the tons of different dinner rolls I have baked, my kids always pick crescent rolls. Coming to this rice, if you are a garlic lover, you should try this rice. To be honest, I never thought this rice would be so flavorful given the minimum ingredients. But, it was tasty and flavorful and has been a regular since.
If the rice is not cooled before mixing, it will break and become mushy. Recipe adapted from Mallika Badrinath book.
