Thank you so much for that recipe. It was delicious. I've never made rice like that before so was very nervous, but it turned out fantastic. I had the heat down too low - but I turned it up a little and cooked it for an extra ten minutes and it worked out wonderfully. I was a bit worried about the tomato sauce - I thought maybe that means something differnt to those not in Australia - like tomato paste - but I used tomato sauce 1/4 cup and it like I said - delicious. Thanks!
