It tastes much better with it. This dish is great on top of lettuce salad. It’s very healthy and tastes great.

It is medium, and rather sticky. It is worlds away from basmati. For this recipe I would definitely use basmati, not jasmine.

PS – I make this all the time and the poster above is correct – 1-2/3 Tbsp of salt is too much.

Then saw this post so decided to make the dish tonight. A disappointment. The flavor is good, but there must be a mistake in the recipe with the amount of salt. “1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons of salt” didn’t sound right, so I just put in 1 Tablespoon, and still the dish was too salty. Threw the batch out; frustrating after dicing all those onions.
