  3. Feliciana's Notes:| Original recipe called for 1/4 c. butter;| The turmeric is my own addition - I like the color; so is the garlic what's the point of cooking anything if you do not use garlic!| I simply use 1 tsp. chicken broth pwdr diluted in 1 c. boiling water;| I don't use the bay leaf.| I have always used freshly pressed orange juice; I do not think this dish would work with concentrated or possibly frzn.
  4. Here's what I made yesterday for dinner. Feliciana posted the rice to TNT. It was very good. I used a little saffron instead of the turmeric. I used fresh squeezed o.j., but I think you probably could use out of the carton (probably because the oranges I used weren't very flavorful). I think the addition of some cinnamon and some golden brown raisins would really make this dish.
