Directions
When the rice is nearly done, drain and dry in colander.
Add 3 tblspn, cold water and return to the pot and steam for 10 minutes on low heat.
Just before serving fry onions in oil to a golden brown and sprinkle over rice.
While cooking, the lid of pot must be shut tightly so that moisture does not evaporate too rapidly and aromas do not escape.
