INSTRUCTIONS
Cover the rice in cold water, and strain it through a sieve; repeat
until the water runs clear; cover with clear cold water, and soak for
30 minutes. Let rice drain through a sieve and then sit an additional
30 minutes. In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, melt butter over
medium-low heat, and saute the cloves, onions, and cinnamon until the
mixture begins to brown, about 6 to 8 minutes. Add the rice, chicken
stock (just enough to cover the rice), and salt; bring to a boil.
Cover tightly, and simmer over low heat for 15 minutes, or until the
rice is tender and fluffy. Mix in the cashews and the golden raisins
just before serving. Makes 4 servings.
