How to make Spanish rice

promised more recipes. So today you get Spanish rice. Here is your list of ingredients:

• 2 C. rice (I use Basmati for its nutritious value)
• 1/2 C. olive oil
• 1 small onion diced
• 4 C. water or broth
• 1 can tomato sauce
• salt to taste

Put olive oil in large pot turn on medium high heat. As soon as it has warmed add uncooked rice and diced onion. Stir the rice till it turns golden in color. Not brown just golden. Add water or broth and tomato sauce. Put the lid on and turn the heat down to low. Let cook for approximately 25 minutes or until rice is cooked and liquid has been absorbed. Season to taste. That is it. Goes great with the green chile recipe. This makes enough for a family, about eight servings or four and have left overs. Spanish rice warms very nicely in the microwave. If it is too much, cut the recipe in half.
