My family love Spanish Rice for our tortilla wrap. I always buy those ready in pack from Knorr brand. Unfortunately since last year pandemic started, our local supermarket has all ran out of stock 😢😢.
With my kids nagging me for it, I decided to make my own. I searched throught the internet, and found many. But doesn't have the ingredients, so I improvised into my own version.
Here goes the ingredients:
- 2 cups++ of White rice grain 🍚
- Half clove of garlic
- 1 can Diced Tomato 🍅🍅
- 2 cubes of Chicken Stock
- 6-8 teaspoon of sugar
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1 teaspoon of Cumin powder
- 2 thin slices of butter
- Italian herbs (as much as you want)
Instructions:
Diced the garlic, cook in pan with low fire till brown.
Add white rice grain (washed) n cook till it turn brown.
I then transferred the rice into a large pot because my rice cooker was in used that time. It is best direct into rice cooker.
Now add in all these ingredient. And 1 and a qtr can of water (use diced tomato can). Cover the pot and let the rice soak for 30 minutes - 1 hour, just so it can easily get the rice evenly cooked.
After that you can start cooking.
When the rice cooker button jumped, wait for 10-15 minutes and have a check. It will still be wet if its too much water. Loosen up the rive with spatula. Cover it, and press cook button again. When u heard the button jumped, its ready.
You can smell the aroma of cumin and herbs in it. Well, getting hungry now... 🤤🤤😋😋 Lets eat and enjoy!!
