   1      cup           brown rice
     1/4  cup           raisins or currants
   2      tablespoons   dehydrated chopped onion
   1      tablespoon    butter -- optional
   2                    chicken stock cubes
   2      cups          water (2 to 2-1/2 cups)
     1/3  cup           slivered toasted almonds

Place the rice, raisins, onion, butter, stock cubes and water in a 2- to
3-quart saucepan. Bring to the boil, and stir once or twice. Reduce heat,
cover, and simmer 45 to 50 minutes, or until rice is tender and liquid is
absorbed. Remove from heat. Add almonds, season with salt and pepper, and
fluff with a fork.
