Indian Dirty Rice image

I needed a mild rice to go with a spicy Indian dish and couldn't find anything that seemed to work. I came up with this based of several Indian recipes, not necessarily authentic but nummy none the less. The sweetness of the raisins works well with a spicy dish. If you are cooking the rice on the stove instead of in a rice cooker just change the amount of chicken stock.
