In a large saucepan, combine the stock, rice, garlic and 6 cups (1.5L) water. Season. Bring to the boil over medium-high heat. Reduce to a simmer and partially cover the saucepan with a lid. Simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent grains sticking to the bottom of the pan, for 1 1/4 hours or until the mixture thickens and is creamy (the liquid will reduce by about half).
