Submitted by PickledSeeds

"This is a good dish to go with a Mexican meal. It's also vegetarian so throw in some black beans and you've got a complete meal."

 

• Ready In: 55mins
• Ingredients: 8
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 2 cups unsalted vegetable stock
• 1 1⁄2 tablespoons canola oil

• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1⁄2 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 medium tomatoes, chopped

1. Heat oil in large saucepan. Add onion and rice and cook over medium heat until the onion is just softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in salt, cumin, tomato and cook 1 minute more, stirring.

Very good and very simple! I had to use basmati rice, but will make with long grain rice as well. It has good complementary flavours and truly could go with anything, we found it extremely tasty! Much enjoyed, thankyou! Made for PAC Spring 2009
