| Spanish Fried Rice 2 cups rice 1 clove garlic, minced 1 medium onion, quartered, then sliced thin ¼ cup oil. 1 small can tomato paste. 3 cups chicken stock or water salt to taste In a large frying pan, heat the oil, after oil is heated add the rice. Sauté rice until just browned, stir constantly careful to not let rice burn. Add onion and garlic, continue to cook until onion turns somewhat transparent. Add tomato paste (sauce), followed by water or chicken stock. Cook the rice over moderate heat, uncovered, until most of the water has evaporated. Place the cover on the pan/pot, reduce heat to low for about 20 minutes. Rice is done when you press down gently with a fork, and the rice tends to spring back up. Serves: 5 -6 |
