Serves :
4

Preparation Time :
45 minutes

Cooking Time :
45 minutes

Preparation Method :

  • Warm the oil in a large pan and fry garlic, olives and olive paste until the garlic is cooked but not browned.
  • Add rice and toast the grains for about 5-7 minutes or until they are crackling hot.
  • Then add 2 ladlefuls of stock and stir until the rice has absorbed most of the liquid.
