Did not change anything initially, but it turned out Incredibly bland. Had to add tons of seasoning and other herbs to give it any sort of flavor. - 18 Jan 2018 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
I did make changes. I fried I small chopped sweet onion, and added turmeric to the spices. It was delicious. - 05 Dec 2017 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
This is an excellent recipe. I used whole grain rice. The flavors and texture are soothing and delicate. I topped with hot peppers, lime, and fresh coriander leaves. Thank you for the recipe. - 17 Jan 2017 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
