Thanks Michael, glad you approve. Loving all the shouts for pork belly, though the point of the recipe was to be simple, frugal, healthy and tasty. Pork next time! J

Hi Phyllis, I don’t necessarily agree with rinsing basmati. I’ve been cooking rice as per this recipe for a while now, and it is never anything less than perfect and fluffy. That said, some rices are more starchy than others. I use Tilda. All best, J

Thanks Su-Lin. Yes it was plain in the best possible way, though strangely fulfilling.

Isn’t it just? Going for simple here but a little pork belly would no go a miss.

Sometimes that’s just what we need. Reading the previous comments, that and pork belly will be nice too. 🙂

The spices are spot on. Yum and double yum. It might be pointed out that the basmati rice should be rinsed several times first until the water runs clear. I like Lizzie’s idea, too.
