Home-freakin' run!!! This was easy to make and absolutely delicious. I love cooking Indian dishes, and this is a wonderful addition to my growing repertoire. The spices give several subtle levels of flavor, making it a great addition to many of the dishes that I already prepare as an alternative to the plain rice I have been making in the past.

This is a really simple but very tasty twist on basmati rice, I make it every time I cook Indian food. Fabulous. Thanks Alex! I love your show and look forward to many more fabulous recipes from you!

What a step up from plain old rice! Loved it and so did my husband. It's now in the repetoire. Thanks Alex.

This rice tastes really good, and full of interesting flavors. Unfortunately I think that it was too soggy after all the soaking. The rice grains broke apart and became very glue-like. I remember Alex saying that she likes her rice very sticky so maybe this was the intention. I would make this recipe again but maybe I would soak the rice less time or just plain rinse it.
