  • Soak the rice in hot water for about 15 minutes, then wash it in cold water until the water runs clear, drain it well and let it dry.
  • In a saucepan, we will fry the rice in oil until it starts to look light golden and remove the excess oil.
  • We will blend the tomato, garlic, and onion; the puree should be thick. Add it to the rice and let it cook for a few minutes until absorbed.
  • Then add the liquid (broth or water), salt, and vegetables, and gently stir to distribute the ingredients; we will cover with sprigs of parsley and cilantro.
  • Once it starts to boil, cover the saucepan and do not uncover it until after 15 minutes to check how much water it has; let it go for a maximum of 20 minutes, then remove it from the heat and let it sit for about 10 minutes, and it’s ready to serve.
