Directions

Heat the butter in a saute pan and gently fry the onions until soft and slightly golden. Add the garlic 1 minute, along with the thyme. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.

While the onions are cooking, bring a large pot of water to the boil. Salt it, as for pasta, then boil the rice until tender. Drain well. Toss with the onion mixture and heat through.

    Wonderful alternative to "boring" steamed rice. I also used dried thyme and it was fine. Onions sauteed approximately 20-25 minutes and rice takes 11-12 minutes. Next time I will cut the recipe in half because it makes enough for a large crowd.

    Love this recipe! I did not have any fresh thyme so I used about 1 teaspoon of dried. It worked great. This recipe is so simple, but it makes the rice very special. I doubt I'll ever make plain rice again.

    Was very good, I cut down on the onions because I though it was too much but I shouldn't have done that. I'll make it again!
