Tips for Making Creamy Garlic and Parmesan Rice:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Choose a flavorful rice, such as basmati or jasmine, and use freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the rice. This will prevent the rice from cooking evenly and becoming mushy.
- Toast the rice in the butter before adding the liquid. This will help to develop the flavor of the rice and prevent it from sticking to the pan.
- Use a flavorful broth to cook the rice. Chicken broth or vegetable broth are both good options.
- Add the garlic and Parmesan cheese towards the end of the cooking time. This will prevent the garlic from burning and the Parmesan cheese from becoming rubbery.
- Season the rice to taste with salt and pepper.
- Serve the rice immediately, while it is still hot and creamy.
