Take the rice in a wire colander, wash it with plenty of water and leave it in warm salted water for 15-20 minutes.
Take the oil and butter in a deep rice pot and melt it.
Finely chop the onion and garlic and fry for 10 minutes. Add the mushrooms and continue sautéing until the water has evaporated.
Drain and drain the soaked rice and transfer it to the pan. Fry the rice by turning it upside down until it turns transparent. Add 2-3 drops of lemon juice and 1 teaspoon of sugar while roasting the rice. Thus, you will have a white and grainy rice.
Add 1 to 1.5 parts of hot chicken stock or drinking water to the roasted rice and check the salt. Close the lid and cook on low heat until the water is absorbed.
Take the cooked rice from the fire and turn it upside down once and mix it. Add finely chopped dill or parsley and mix. Cover with a paper towel and close the lid.
You can serve your rice, which is brewed for 10-15 minutes, by decorating it with fresh dill leaves, warm or cold. Bon Appetit!
