Note for the Saffron Rice Recipe:
This is an easy and flavorful rice that you should enjoy making it when white rice just gets too boring. When it is finished it is fluffy and the rice is not broken. You should rinse the rice and clean it thoroughly before you add it to the mixture and you can also garnish it with some parsley for some color. This recipe is known because it uses basmati rice, and is much healthier and lighter. Also this is a recipe which can be cooked very fast when you need something to eat fast or you have unannounced guests.
