boil a kettle of water and rinse the rice in a pot until the water is mostly clear then drain
add the rice, water and turmeric into the pot, stir and cook until for about 8 minutes until the rice is mostly cooked through
whilst the rice is cooking chop up the rest of the ingredients ~ drain the rice and set aside, in the same pot add in the chilli, garlic, a little bit of water and the salt
sweat the chilli & garlic then mix in the tomato paste and a little bit more water, stir and cook for a few minutes
add in the rest of the spices and the rice ~ mix together, turn the heat to low and cover the pot
steam for another few minutes until the rice is fully cooked, make sure to stir in between so it doesn’t stick
stir through the coriander before serving :)
HIIIIII i know i haven’t posted in ages oops honestly i haven’t been cooking as much as i used to due to it being very stressful and more time consuming having to measure everything out, count and track but this was super easy to make so i thought i’d post anyways ~
this is definitely not an authentic mexican rice recipe however it is inspired by the tangy flavours of arroz rojos (mexican red rice) ~ it’s quick, simple but has good flavour and tastes great beside taco style meat (vegetarian for me ofc) also similar to my yellow rice recipe ! <3
