Cooking Directions:
The first step to this wonderful Basmati garlic rice is to wash the rice 3-5 times until the water is running clear. Then soak the rice for 30 minutes to an hour. When cooking Basmati rice you want to steam it in a bamboo steamer. Steam for 15 Minutes. In a large skillet melt the butter on low-medium heat and stir fry the garlic until golden brown.
