    I wanted to make dill rice to have with dinner (my favourite recipe has fresh fava/broad beans beans and dill but fresh fava are out of season here). I came across this unusual recipe in Mediterranean Vegetarian Feasts, the book I have some difficulty with (see my note for the book). It cooks medium grain rice in milk in the oven with dill, chilli and spring onions. So I am trying it. It is a bit like a savoury rice pudding. UPDATE: It took a lot longer to cook in my oven than the recipe specifies (my sweet rice pudding recipe takes 1 hr in the oven). The dill and spring onions/scallions float to the top and form a layer that needs to be stirred through. Perhaps a stirring half way through would be helpful. It is a bit bland. Overall, it has potential but I need to tinker with it. UPDATE 2: I formed the leftover rice into patties and cooked them in an oiled pan. Delicious!!
