This rice was ok. Honestly, I would have been just as happy with regular rice and skip the cost of saffron. Would definitely try again.

I love Indian dishes and I paired this with chicken curry & pita and was glad to have the extra curry sauce to cover the rice. Maybe it's just not a flavor I like for rice, but my husband didn't like it either and I made it exactly as stated in the recipe.

It was actually really quite a great dish. It is not the most flavorful recipe,not something I would eat by itself, but then again I don't think you're supposed to. I think it's a side dish and considering that, anymore flavor would have been overbearing when paired with an entree. I think what is stopping me from giving it 5 stars has more to do with my taste for this kind of dish than anything about this particular recipe.

The taste and smell of India brings back exotic memories. For all armchair travellers. Perfect rice dish,
