Garlic butter rice recipe – News365.co.za

This baked rice dish is so full of flavour you may never go back to eating plain rice again! If you prefer a stronger garlic flavour, you can omit the french onion soup mix. Finish off with parsley, chives or green shallots sprinkled on top. We also like to drizzle with a little extra melted butter before serving.
