INGREDIENTS
- 2 cup rice
- 2 cups ( water + 2 chicken stock cubes)
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 6 tbsp finely chopped dill
INSTRUCTIONS
- Heat the oil in a pot on medium heat.
- Add the rice and water and stock cubes, and cover with a lid. Bring the rice to a boil, then reduce it down to a simmer on low heat. Leave it to gently simmer for about 10 minutes.
- The water will now have completely absorbed. Remove the rice from the heat. Stir finely chopped fresh dill into the rice, then cover it with a lid again.
- Leave the rice for 2-5 minutes covered with a lid, but away from the heat. This will make the rice more fragrant, and allow it to fluff up. It’s then ready to serve enjoy!
