In a flameproof casserole, melt the butter and add the rice. Stir for a few seconds, until the butter coats the rice. Add the garlic and stir for a few seconds, but not long enough to let the rice change color. Add the bell peppers and cook for a few seconds, again not too long until the peppers change color. Add the stock and bring the mixture gently to a boil. Add the raisins, nuts, sage, and salt. Cover, place in oven, and bake for about 18 minutes or until the rice is cooked through
