This is similar to the rice served at our local shawarma restaurant without the gluten noodles. This is a rice that can be dolled up replacing the water with some kind of broth or stock, adding onion fried until transparent in butter after cooked or even adding a hand full of pine nuts lightly toasted in a dry frying pan all depending on what you are serving it with but the basic recipe is excellent with chicken cooked with Shoarma Spice Mix.
