MY VERY BEST ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING RICE

My Very Best Anything and Everything Rice image

This is my own signature rice dish. I make a variation of it every week, you can add "anything" to it and it goes with "everything". You can make this your very own by checking out the variations I listed below and if you try something different and it's great, I'd love to hear about it. I make the rice in my rice cooker which calls for 1 1/4 cup liquid, if you are making it on the stove then follow the directions on the package of rice for the amount of liquid and if you have a rice cooker be sure to check your own manual for the amount of liquid as they are all different. Just be sure to use broth instead of water.

Time 1h10m

Yield 3 cups, 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1 cup jasmine rice
1 1/4 cups chicken broth
2 -3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 large onion, chopped
1 pinch saffron
1/2 cup frozen peas
salt and pepper

Steps:

Mix the pinch of saffron into the chicken broth.
Cook the rice using the chicken broth mixture. **I make the rice in my rice cooker which calls for 1 1/4 cup liquid, if you are making it on the stove then follow the directions on the package of rice for the amount of liquid and if you have a rice cooker be sure to check your own manual for the amount of liquid as they are all different.**.
While the rice is cooking sauté the onions in a little oil, on low to med. heat, stirring them frequently. I like to sauté them for awhile (like 20 minutes), so they get caramelized.
Turn the onions off when they are done to your liking.
When the rice is done add another tablespoon or so of olive to the onions turn the heat up a bit and add the cooked rice.
Stir fry the rice for about 5 minutes and then add the peas and sauté for another 5 minutes or so. I like to really stir fry the rice, so I use the maximum amount of oil. With the heat on med-high I let it sit so some of the rice gets a little crispy, not burned, but crispy on the bottom. - I hope that makes sense!
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Now, some variations depending on my mood --.
I add diced bell pepper with the onions.
Or add garlic or fresh sliced mushrooms to the onions 5 or so minutes into their sautéing.
I also add some toasted slivered almonds occasionally.
And, sometimes I add a handful of fresh parmesan to the finished warm rice, it's really good!
You can pretty much do as you please with this; it's so easy and always so good.

Yield Makes 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

Tips:

Always rinse your rice before cooking. This removes the starch and helps the rice cook evenly.
Use the right amount of water. The general rule is 1 cup of rice to 1.5 cups of water. However, this can vary depending on the type of rice you are cooking.
Bring the water to a boil before adding the rice. This helps to prevent the rice from sticking together.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer the rice for the recommended amount of time. Do not lift the lid during cooking.
Once the rice is cooked, let it rest for 5 minutes before fluffing it with a fork. This helps the rice to absorb any remaining moisture.
Fluff the rice with a fork before serving. This helps to separate the grains of rice and make it light and fluffy.
Add salt to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as pepper, garlic powder, or onion powder.
Serve rice as a side dish or use it in a variety of dishes, such as stir-fries, soups, and casseroles.
