fire until light fawn color, then add rice; shake pan over fire for
a few minutes, so as to fry rice a little. Next add seasoning, salt,

When rice is tender mix in grated cheese. It is then ready to serve.
In preparing this dish remember that rice should be well done, and
should be neither too dry nor too moist.
