  2. Drain rice thoroughly in a colander and set aside.
  3. In a 3 quart saucepan, heat butter and sauté onion until soft and translucent.

  6. Cover saucepan, bring to boil; reduce heat to lowest setting.
  7. Remove lid and continue to simmer for 10 minutes or until rice appears higher than the water surface.
