In a large pan, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the raisins and let them plump slightly in the warm butter, absorbing some of that richness.
Next, stir in the precooked rice, keeping it moving constantly until the grains are lightly browned and toasted.
Pour in the reserved water (from boiling the onion) and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat, cover the pan, and let it simmer for 5 minutes.
If there's still liquid remaining after this time, uncover the pan and continue to simmer until all the water has evaporated and the rice is fluffy.
