we are taking a stab at replicating cilantro lime rice tonight to accompany our fajitas. here’s the recipe:

1 teaspoon vegetable oil or butter
2 tsp. fresh cilantro
2/3 cup white basmati rice
1 cup water
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 Lime

In a 2-quart heavy saucepan, heat oil or butter over low heat, stirring occasionally until melted. Add rice and lime juice, stir for 1 minute. The following in brackets is what the recipe says, but we make our rice cooker do all the hard work. We added the water and salt to the rice cooker bowl then added the buttery rice. [Add water and salt, bring to a full rolling boil. At boiling, cover, turn down to simmer over low heat until rice is tender and the water is absorbed, about 25 minutes. Fluff rice with a fork.]
