I had bought some Kalijira rice last year when I got my rice cooker. This is my week to play! I found three recipe to make- one pudding and two pilafs. One of the pilafs is a quick and easy version made in the rice cooker and the other is a slighly longer recipe with a few more ingredients. Below is the description of the rice from the back of the package.
Considered the premium rice of choice in Bengal, Kalijira is known as the "Prince of Rice" for its delicious and delicate nutty flavor. This tiny aromatic rice is easy and fast to cook, producing firm yet tender separate grains. Use this heirloom rice in your favorite recipes and as an alternative to basmati for pilafs. Also makes an exceptional rice pudding. Lotus Foods

A rice is reserved for special occasions, pilaw is served with a generous sprinkling of almonds and raisins on top. But even without the embellishments, this pilaw is a pleasant change from boiled rice. This is a traditional northern Indian method of preparation, coutesy of Lotus Foods.
