I'm Googling recipes and what I'm understanding is that it's kind of like an
Italian fried rice? Add your olive oil, chopped onion, take out the onion,
put in the raw rice, slowly pour in simmering liquid and if it needs more
liquid use wine. After that add your remaining ingredients. Am I even
close?

I'd give it a shot. If it doesn't come out, I'll give it to the neighbors;
they don't know the difference between good or bad food. LOL. :~)
