Persian Lima Beans and Dill Rice

In Los Angeles, there used to be a Persian restaurant which was my hubby’s favorite place. And my favorite was Lamb shanks with the Lima beans Dill rice. This rice is extra ordinarily delicious. I just love it.
When I give it to my kids I call it the “hairy rice” because the dill looks like little hair stuck to the rice and it adds some fun to the rice and the kids like it.
