This pilaf is delicious, but it's a bit too time-consuming for a weeknight meal.

The rice was a bit undercooked for my liking, but I think that's just a matter of personal preference.

This pilaf is a bit too lemony for my taste, but I think it would be great with less lemon juice.

The rice was a bit undercooked for my liking, but that's easily fixed by cooking it for a few minutes longer. Other than that, this recipe is a winner!

This pilaf was a bit too lemony for my taste, but I think that's just a matter of personal preference. I would recommend using less lemon juice next time, or maybe even omitting it altogether.
