Step 2
Add the rice to the saute pan when it is preheated. Mix the rice and the oil together until all coated in oil. Then, toast the rice by spreading the grains in a flat layer in the pan. Stir the rice to evenly toast the grains. Careful not to burn the grains, lower the heat as needed
Step 3
When the rice is evenly toasted, lower the heat to low.
Step 4
Blend the other ingredients together until liquified. Chop the onion and tomatoes in 1/4 sizes and add them to your blender. Add the salt, bouillon, and 1 cup of water to the blender. Blend them all together to make the rice mixture.
Step 5
Slowly pour the rice mixture over the toasted rice in the saute pan. It may sizzle a bit as you pour the mixture in. Stir the rice to even it out for cooking. Add the remining cups of water to the saute pan. The rice should be fully submerged now and it should look very liquidy. Add more water if not fully submerged.
Step 6
Cover the saute pan and raise the temperature slightly and watch until the rice starts to simmer. The rice should simmer for 20 minutes.
Step 7
The rice will be done when it look crater-y. When all the water is absorbed. It should be steamy and fluffy. Enjoy!
