80 g cheese, grated
salt, white pepper to taste
Method:
Cook (or microwave) rice with 3 cups water, butter, pinch of saffron and some salt and pepper. Oil an large bowl and press rice into it, making a hollow in the centre. (Leave some rice for topping.)

Skuhajte rizu sa maslacem i oko 3 solje vode. Zacinite prema ukusu. Nauljite okruglu posudu, pa ubacite rizu i utisnite je praveci udubljenje. (Ostavite malo rize za 'poklopac')
Isjeckajte povrce, skuhajte i ocijedite.
Zagrijte preostali maslac, proprzite brasno i zalijte hladnim mlijekom. Zestoko promijesajte, pa kuhajte ovu smjesu dok se ne zgusne. Ubacite sir i zacinite.
