Does anybody have a good Mexican rice recipe? I haven't had much luck with the ones that I've tried that I've found online.
Made this the other night. I can't cook my way out of a paper bag and it was excellent.AMP87 said:
Go to justapinch.com. Do a search for recipes by Emma Menchaca. She has one for Mexican rice. Follow her directions exactly on little to no stirring. I add about 1.5 teaspoons of cumin seed about 2/3rds of the way through toasting the rice. Also, using a can of chunky Rotel instead of tomato sauce works great and gives it some needed spice. She is right, using chicken stock instead of water really doesn't add anything to it. Really good recipe. Her recipe for Carne Guisada is the best you will ever eat.
same here but I use the powdered stuff not the cube and canned diced roasted tomatoesRGV AG said:
Use the measurements above, but I would recommend nixing the chili powder and instead put a cube of caldo de tomato in the water and warm it up until it dissolves. Also throw about a half to a third of a can of rotel and some of the rotel juice in it.
While you are browning the rice also brown some onion slices or diced onion. Add garlic and cumin as seasoning.
