Cooking Steps

Cook the garlic rice
1

• Finely chop garlic.
• In a medium saucepan, melt half the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. Cook half the garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
• Add basmati rice, the water (for the rice) and a generous pinch of salt, stir and 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 rice is tender and water is absorbed, 10 minutes. 


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