This rice was a disappointment. The orange flavor was too strong, and the rice was dry. I would not recommend this recipe.

This Persian rice was very good! It was easy to make and had a lot of flavor. I used jasmine rice, and it turned out perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my rice turned out a little dry. I think I may have used too much water. Other than that, the flavor was great!
