    Tweak: Channers Altered ingredient amounts:

    You might want to reduce the stock and water a tad and add them as u go, that way its a dryer dish.

    Tweak: SloeWolf Something else:

    you can add smoked bacon diced or a pigs tail when you add the rice for a nice porky floavour and it makes it more of a one pot meal
