Ingredients

• 4 oz. long-grained rice

• 2 tablespoons raw chicken fat

• 1 clove garlic

• rich chicken stock or 2 chicken cubes and water

---

Method:

1. Wash the rice very well, rubbing it between the fingers. Drain and rinse until the water is clear. Drain thoroughly.

2. Cut the chicken fat into smallish pieces and fry them until only small brown crispy bits remain. Remove them.

3. Add the crushed clove of garlic and the rice and toss it about to coat it with the fat, without coloring it. Remove and discard the garlic.

4. Add cold chicken stock to a depth above the rice of 1 1/2 times that of the rice. Bring to the boil and boil fairly fast without stirring.

5. When the stock has almost been absorbed by the rice, lower the heat and continue to cook until the rice is dry. It should be ready in 20-25 minutes.

Note: This rice is served with any chicken dish.
