  Flavoured rice

  Latin Americans love their rice! Why? With just a little bit of extra love, this simple condiment can be a complete dish!

  3/3

  Rice and beans has been eaten a long time in Latin America. Mostly because it´s cheap, but the main reason why rice is a key ingredient to the regional dishes, is that it tastes so good and goes along with almost everything! 

  So how do you get the best flavoured rice?

  Just boil the rice perfectly al dente in broth. Spice with golden turmeric and a few chili flakes. Sprinkle with some fresh herbs, add some larger pieces of chopped tomatoes, paprika and onion. Or add beans peas or chickpeas! Squeeze some lime juice and serve with a simple tomato sauce or a rich stew.
