Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups long grain white rice (Not short grained!)
6 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup of broken spaghetti ((pieces, about 1 inch) or 1/2 cup orzo pasta
4 cups hot water
2 -3 teaspoons salt, depending to taste

Steps:

  • Wash the rice in strainer.
  • Soak rice for 15 minutes in hot water.
  • Put butter in pan, melt, and then brown Spaghetti pieces or Orzo using a medium heat.
  • Be careful not to burn the butter.
  • Now drain your rice that is soaking and add it to the butter/ Spaghetti (or Orzo) in your pan.
  • Saute the rice for approximately 5 minutes with medium heat stirring frequently to avoid burning the rice.
  • You want a nice light brown color.
  • After rice is browned, add 4 Cups Hot Water and Salt.
  • Cover and bring to a boil.
  • You want it to boil briskly for about 5 minutes.
  • Turn heat to LOW and cook until all the water is absorbed.
  • This should take about 15 minutes with Very Low heat.

  • Uncover when you are ready to serve and make sure to stir it again at this point.

Tips:

  • For an authentic Syrian flavor, use high-quality olive oil and fresh, ripe tomatoes.
  • If you don't have tomato paste, you can use tomato sauce instead. Just reduce the amount of water you add to the pot.
  • To make the dish more flavorful, add a bay leaf and a pinch of cinnamon to the pot.
  • If you like your spaghetti spicy, add a teaspoon of Aleppo pepper or another type of chili pepper to the pot.
  • Serve the spaghetti with grated Parmesan cheese, fresh parsley, and a wedge of lemon.
