Steps:
- Pour the rice into a medium-sized pot.
- Fill up the pot halfway and rinse the water. Discard the water.
- Repeat this step 2-3 times to rinse the rice unit the water becomes clear. Again, discard the water.
- Add the 4 cups of water, vegetable oil and salt.
- Bring the pot to a boil over high heat.
- Allow the water to continue to boil until it has been absorbed by the rice and you no longer see any water over top of the rice (roughly 5 minutes).
- Turn the heat down to low and cover the rice.
- Cook for 30-40 minutes.
- Create a saffron-infused garnish: Grind a pinch of saffron using a mortar and pestle. If you don't have one of those, just grind it in a small bowl using the back of a small spoon. Next, add a 1 tsp. of hot water and mix evenly. Take 1/2 cup of the cooked rice and add it in. Mix well until rice is fully combined and becomes a beautiful yellow colour.

Steps:
- Rinse the rice in a colander under cold water until it runs clear, picking out any little pieces of grit or debris. Shake off the excess water. Heat a pot over medium heat, and then add the rice, oil, garlic, saffron and cayenne pepper. Stir and toast the rice until the cayenne and saffron are fragrant, about 4 minutes. Shake the pot to level out the rice, and then add the chicken stock to fill about 1/2-inch over the rice. Bring to a boil, and then lower to a simmer and cover to cook for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let the rice stand another 5 minutes, covered. Fluff with a fork. Stir in the almond slivers and lemon zest, season with salt and pepper and serve.
