    Hi mig, my OH makes mine and it is delicous. All I know is you need to use stock to get nice, moist and flavoursome rice. He uses packets and adds finely cut onion and stock.
    Sorry can't be of anymore use.

    You need the proper rice too, that helps. We have tried with easy-cook and other sorts but the arborio (I think it's that!) works best. You have to stir and stir and stir too. Lots of stock, veg, herbs etc and grate the cheese over at the end when serving, that's what we do. DD
