1. Soak the rice in some water for 10 minutes.
2. Although it is not required, I find that it helps to keep the grains separate and avoids it getting mushy!
3. In a skillet, in low heat, add the butter/oil along with rice and sugar.
4. Let the rice get coated with the oil.
5. Once the rice gets aromatic add juice of 1 lime.
6. Stir for a minute.
7. Add 2 cups of water and salt - cover and cook for about 10-15 minutes.
8. Check to see if the rice has absorbed all the water.
9. Stir it very lightly and add chopped cilantro.
10. You can add more if you like.
11. Taste and add more lime juice if required.
12. Remove from flame, fluff the rice lightly and let it sit for 1-2 minutes with the lid on.
13. You can optionally add lime wedges as garnish.
14. This rice goes very well with spicy and hot dishes.
15. The flavors are simple though they burst with the freshness of lime and aroma of cilantro.
