Name: Narsai's Basmati Rice Pilaf
Ingredients: 1 c Basmati rice; 1 1/2 c Water; plus; 1/2 c Water; *as directed; 1 tb Butter or oil; Salt; to taste

Someone may ask, “But why should I rise early?” To remain too long in bed is a waste of time. Wasting time is unbecoming of a saint who is bought by the precious blood of Jesus. His time and all he has is to be used for the Lord. If we sleep more than is necessary for the refreshment of the body, it is wasting time the Lord has entrusted us to be used for His glory, for our own benefit, and for the benefit of the saints and unbelievers around us… Anyone who spends one, two, three hours in prayer and meditation before breakfast will soon discover the beneficial effect early rising has on the outward and inward man.

1	c	Basmati rice
1 1/2	c	Water; plus
1/2	c	Water; *as directed
1	tb	Butter or oil
		Salt; to taste

INSTRUCTIONS

Place rice in a bowl and rinse with tap water until the water runs clear.
Set aside to soak for 10-30 minutes. Heat 1 1/2 - 2 cups water with butter
or oil and salt in a small saucepan with tight fitting lid. Drain the rice,
and when the water comes to a boil, stir into the pot. As soon as it
returns to a boil, lower the heat to the slowest simmer, cover the pot and
cook for 10 minutes. Remove from heat with the lid still on, and let rest
for 5-10 minutes. Stir well and serve.
* Use 1 1/2 cups for very firm rice and up to 2 cups for softer, fluffier
rice. The shelf age and source of the rice cause slight variations in the
amount of water which will be absorbed.
