Cooking Steps

• Finely chop garlic. • In a medium saucepan, heat the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. • Cook garlic, until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add basmati rice, the water (for the rice) and a generous pinch of salt, stir, then bring to the boil. • Reduce heat to low and cover with a lid. • Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed, 10 minutes.

TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so don't peek!
