THE BEST AUTHENTIC SPANISH RICE
If you like the kind of spanish rice served in Mexican restaurants, you will LOVE this recipe. Browning the rice gives it that fluffy and nutty taste that makes it so good. The flavor is not meant to be overpowering, so it goes very good with spicy entrees. This recipe was given to me by a friend who makes the best authentic Mexican dishes ever. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Pour rice into a deep pot and stir in enough oil so that every grain is coated.
- Cook rice on medium and constantly stir, using a spatula, until it becomes a light toasted color (20-25 min), be careful not to burn.
- Add onion and green pepper, cook until they become soft, add more oil if needed.
- Stir in tomato, cook for 2-3 minute.
- Tilt pot, remove any excess oil w/ spoon.
- Sprinkle bouillon and garlic salt over rice (DO NOT STIR).
- Pour water over rice (DO NOT STIR), then cover.
- Bring to a boil, then lower heat and cook for 25-30 min, or until most liquid evaporated (DO NOT LIFT LID DURING THIS TIME).
- Pick out large pieces of veggies w/ a fork and discard, (this step may be omitted if you chopped your veggies, I have picky eaters).
- *This rice actually tastes better when cooled, and then heated in the microwave, as any remaining liquid is evaporated.

BEST SPANISH RICE EVER!
I received this recipe from a good girlfriend of mine. I ask her for it after hearing her husband boast about it so much. He said he had never eaten any Spanish rice better than hers. And I have to agree with him! It's the best! I have many recipes for Spanish rice, but they take a back seat to this one.

My wife says this is the best Spanish Rice ever, thus the name. This is a simple compliment to any Mexican-style meal, or any meal for that matter. The secret? Jasmine rice instead of the typical long-grain rice.

Steps:
- In a microwave-safe dish (I use a 2-cup Pyrex measuring cup), add 2 cups water and 1 Knorr Caldo de Tomate bouillon cube. Microwave for 2 minutes to heat water. Use a wooden spoon to carefully crush and mix the cube of bouillon in the water. It does not have to be perfectly mixed in, but you do want to get it dissolved.
- In a 4-quart or larger saucepan on medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon olive oil.
- Add uncooked jasmine rice and to the pan, and stir constantly until rice is browned slightly. This should take about 1 minute.
- Add the water carefully, and bring to a boil.
- Cover saucepan, reduce heat to low, and cook for 20 minutes.
- At the end of cooking, fluff rice with a wooden spoon. If the rice looks too damp, leave uncovered and allow to cook for a few more minutes while stirring to prevent burning.

- Spanish Rice. Why serve boring steamed white rice when you can easily transform it into party-worthy Spanish rice? Fluffy white rice is infused with tomato sauce, paprika, chili, and other spices and seasonings.
- Tortilla Española. Tortilla Española or Spanish tortilla is a hearty omelet stuffed with potatoes. It’s a simple combination that surely hits the spot.
- Paella. We can’t have a list of Spanish dishes without mentioning paella, can we? It’s perhaps the most popular Spanish dish there is! And for good reason.
- Red Sangria. We all know a feast is not complete without wine! Sweet and fruity with a bit of a punch, red sangria is the best tasting booze in my book.
- Patatas Bravas. Patatas Bravas, also called patatas a la brava, is a simple dish made with fried potato cubes. The spuds are flavored with a spicy sauce, giving it a mild kick.
- Pimientos de Padrón. Pimientos de Padrón, or deep-fried Padrón peppers, are a plain appetizer that will surely knock your socks off. There’s nothing fancy about this tapas classic at all.
- Spanish Chickpea Stew. Garbanzo con espinacas is a rich and flavorful tomato-based stew loaded with chickpeas and spinach. Infused with cumin, smoked paprika, and cayenne pepper, this stew packs some heat.
- Calamares a La Romana. Calamares a la Romana, or battered and deep-fried squid, is an insanely addictive snack popular in Spain and all over the world.
- Salmorejo (Cold Tomato Soup) Salmorejo is a popular Spanish soup made with tomato. Just like gazpacho, it’s served cold, making it a wonderfully refreshing dish for the summer.
- Pisto. Pisto is the Spanish counterpart of ratatouille. It’s a very simple recipe of stewed veggies, and the key to perfecting it is in the ingredients.
