Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- Heat a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat, then add butter. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, bring stock or broth to a boil.
- When butter gets foamy, add diced onion and almonds and sauté until onion is slightly translucent, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add uncooked rice and sauté, stirring constantly, for about a minute, or until rice is fully coated with the melted butter.
- Add hot stock or broth, bring back to a boil, then add bay leaf. Cover and place entire pot in the oven. Tip: Check seasoning of cooking liquid and make any necessary adjustments before pot goes into oven.
- Cook rice in oven for 18 minutes or until all the liquid is absorbed. If after 18 minutes, there's still liquid in the pot or rice is still too moist, re-cover and return pot to oven for another 2 to 4 minutes.
- Remove pot from oven and gently fluff rice with a wooden fork. Remove bay leaf and discard. Then place a paper towel across top of pot, replace lid, and let rice stand for 10 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve right away.

DELICIOUS ALMOND RICE PILAF
A delicious side dish for beef or chicken. A great change from plain rice or boxed rice mixes. I like to serve this with grilled chicken or with saucy cube steaks.

SAFFRON RICE PILAF
The color yellow symbolized joy for medieval Arabs, who were cultivating saffron in Spain by 960 c.e. Sephardic Jews were equally inspired by the coveted spice, and golden rice became a holiday and Sabbath tradition. This version, made with basmati rice, is punctuated by caramelized onion, currants, and fried almonds.

Steps:
- Soften saffron in hot water (2 tablespoons) in a small bowl.

RICE PILAF WITH PISTACHIOS AND ALMONDS
This dish is inspired by a number of Persian rice pilafs, but it's simpler, and calls for much less butter than an authentic Persian pilaf. There are sweet and tart flavors at play here, especially if you use barberries, but apricots also have a tart edge to them. Rose water makes the pilaf wonderfully fragrant.

Steps:
- Place rice in a bowl in the sink and rinse several times with water, or soak for 30 minutes to an hour. Drain.
- Heat water or stock to a bare simmer in a saucepan or in microwave.
- Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil, butter or ghee in a wide, heavy skillet or saucepan over medium heat and add onion and salt to taste. Cook, stirring, until the onion begins to soften, about 3 minutes, and add rice. Cook, stirring, until the grains of rice are separate, dry and beginning to crackle. Add hot water or stock, rose water and salt to taste and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 15 minutes, until all of the liquid has been absorbed.
- Uncover rice and place a clean towel over the top of the pan (it should not be touching the rice). Replace lid and allow to sit for 10 minutes, undisturbed.
- Meanwhile, heat remaining tablespoon of oil, butter or ghee over medium heat in a medium frying pan or saucepan and add the nuts. Cook, stirring, until lightly toasted, and add spices and barberries or dried apricots. Continue to cook for another minute, until the spices smell fragrant, and remove from the heat. Immediately scrape over the rice.
- Pile the pilaf onto a platter or into a wide bowl and toss to incorporate the nut and spice mixture. Serve.

A dear friend gave me this recipe after she found it in her Taste of Home magazine. (You can see the original submission at: http://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/Potluck-Rice-Pilaf) It was originally to be made for a crowd, but we quartered the recipe for our family. Quick, easy, and tasty! Hope you and your family enjoy as much as we do! (Toasting almonds is not included in prep time.)
