LEMON DILL RICE

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a saucepan.
• Saute the chopped onion for 1 minute.
• Add rice and "parch" over low heat, by stirring until the rice turns white again. Do not let the rice brown.
• Add the rest to the ingredients and bring to boil.
• Lower heat and cover with a tight fitting lid. Cook until all of the liquid is absorbed.

• Note: The rice turn translucent when mixed with the oil. Sauteing the rice greatly reduces foaming during cooking.
