"Self," I said, "there is no way this is going to end well." This recipe calls for 5 cups of liquid to cook 1 cup of rice. Unless the goal is porridge, this proportion is way off; there is no way rice is going to absorb all that liquid, especially not in the 20 minutes allotted to cooking time.

I should have listened. Evidently my self is very smart. Instead, I had to drain off the excess 3 cups of stock - liquid gold going down the drain. It sort of hurt my feelings.

And if you're only going to add the amount of cheese for which this recipe calls, you may as well not even bother. Assume at least double the parm to approach being perceptible.

Two stars because it resulted in an edible product. Hurt feelings would subtract one, but I'm trying to be grown-up about it.
