Brazilian Rice (With onions & Garlic)

Brazilian Rice (With onions & Garlic)

Ingredients (Serves 4)

  • 1/2 Medium Onion
  • 1 Clove Garlic
  • 2 Teaspoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 Cup Long Grain White Rice (I used Jasmine because I like it better), uncooked
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Salt
  • 2 Cups Water

Instructions

  1. Dice the onion and garlic.
  2. Preheat a medium-sized pot over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, onions, and garlic. Turn the heat down to medium and cook for 3-4 minutes until the onion is glistening and starting to soften.
  3. Stir in the rice and let it absorb the flavors from the onion and garlic for 2 minutes.
  4. Add the water and salt. Stir and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, stir again, reduce the heat to the lowest setting, cover, and let it cook for 20 minutes (until the rice is tender).
  5. After 20 minutes, turn off the heat but keep the pot covered for another 5-10 minutes.
  6. Fluff the rice with a fork and serve.
