--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1                    Linguica sausage -- about 6
                        cut on 1/4-inch -- dice
     3/4  cup           Raw long-grain white rice
   1 1/2  cups          Water
          pinch         salt
   2      tablespoons   cilantro -- fresh

 Saute diced sausage in a heavy saucepan until browned, about 5 minutes. Drain off excess fat.  Add rice, stirring well to coat grains. Add water and salt, and bring a boil.  Lower heat, cover pan, and simmer for 19 minutes, or until grains are soft and water has evaporated.  Stir in cilantro.

 Serves 4.
