Hey Boaby
I got round to trying this
I substituted cloves for cummin seeds
(Someone in my family hates cloves)
Everything else was done to the letter

What can I say, except that this was the tastiest pillau rice I have ever made
I was a bit worried about boiling the rice for ten minutes
I thought it might go soggy
But it didn't
Absolutely excellent and I shall make many times again

By the way, the rice heats up again very nicely too
Thanks for the recipe
