5 tips for Mexican Red Rice | Authentic Mexican Recipe

[@drewg7036]

I made Mexican Rice the other day and it came out so good. In the past, I had issues with it being too wet or sticky, or the taste being off, but I found out that you don't need to add an exact measurement of water, just enough to cover the rice. And yes, letting it set for 10 minutes off the heat makes a difference

[@Wazupu]

I like my rice wet.

[@crystalmora9441]

Off the heat??!! It's probably why you have issues.

Before I used blend everything, tomatoes-onion-bouillon, & the rice was good. But now I saute the onion with the oil before adding the rice & it’s wayy better!!

TIP: Add 1 tsp of cumin in the last minute of toasting.....I also add a couple of Tbs each of frozen peas/carrots/corn.... Y Listo! Gorgeous lady!

[@msKita43]

Yes I need that comino in it and the vegs ❤

[@austinrivera7909]

Keep the peas, carrots, and corn out of the rice! FFS

Once you put the water and tomatoe sauce I usually stir and stir until it hits a boiling point. I cover for 10 minutes on low heat and then stir it one more time. Cover and Let it sit for another 3 minutes on low heat. This will help with the tomato sauce spreading to the entire rice and nothing rising to the top

[@ingGS]

I do not recommend stirring, it will make the rice release starch and make it gummy. Just let it be, one or two stirs is fine, but more than that can be a disaster.

[@hermitwatcher8997]

My dad used to make some thing similar but with tomato paste. I miss my dads cooking

[@andrewwalley9589]

Lol, the yelling

[@Speariture]

I can't 💀

[@EulaliaRivera-dp1wi]

I always wash the rice. My Mom used to do it and grew up seeing her do it. So i do it too.

[@deinashipley7968]

Yes rice is full of starch dust.

[@CandysDelicatessen]

Same 👍🏼

[@marlena4020]

I heard that the workers who gather the rice aren’t allowed to go to the bathroom sometimes so they pee on the rice! And that rodents walk all over the rice too!!! Maybe NONE of that is true but i still wash the rice always!!!!

[@sanchezsela80]

Basmati rice doesn’t need to rinse, it turns in to mush. Try something different

[@kayehames9246]

❤ Mex red rice recipe

[@ArabRising]

I love Basmati rice in my household Jenny it is so multi-purposeful. Basmati taste so good too is so flaky and has way less sugar than Jasmine. We use. Basmati in all our Indian and Middle Eastern recipes so good.

[@terrimcghee6922]

Thank you! Can’t wait to try this!

[@lovalin4139]

I also switched to basmati rice for cooking plov; the main advantage for me is it easier to not overcook and it still tastes very good on the next day and even the third day. With jasmine rice even the next day plov was already not enjoyable for me 🍲

[@almaguerra9371]

Original Mexican rice is long grain, here in the US the best brand is Riceland... The one 😃 she uses it's very different 😅 Ya parece 😂 la maestra qué pega con la regla 📏

[@maribelsalas2179]

So true ❤

[@addyop2176]

Buenísimo!!! Gracias por los 5 tips!!!

[@lyssab6466]

I think long grain rice tastes better than basmati. To each thier own. Looks great, though. 😊

[@irico3640]

We latinos have no fancy basmati rice

[@ashmaz400]

Basmati is to thin for me

[@virginiamartinez3920]

Jenny . Try tomatoe chicken bouillon. My mother in law taught me how to make Mexican rice . Everyone brags about my rice . By the way thanks for all your Videos . Very Helpful ❤

[@sanlic2968]

One cup of water for 2 cups of rice? I know better than that, but she should clarify for those who are just learning... Their rice will not cook thoroughly if the rice doesn't have the right amount of liquid.

[@dyannagutierrez166]

I know, I was thinking the same thing. She should clarify for those barley learning

[@A00784]

I agree

[@Calrad]

3 tomatoes will make it up for the additional water.

[@mexipino0525]

Is it one cup of water (tomatoes & onion) to the two cups of rice?

[@lindalately]

First time seeing with basmati rice but looks great!

[@JanieCordero]

Mmmm yummy 😋

[@reneejohnson9256]

That looks delicious! Do you rinse the rice before you toast it? I always wondered about that.

[@cristooreal7996]

No

[@m_y_v_]

I had the same question! Some people you have to wash it & others say you don’t. When I wash the rice it tends to stick to the pan & becomes a mess.

[@garydeforve5055]

Yes, absolutely.

[@deinashipley7968]

​@@m_y_v_ it shouldn't stick if you put oil in the pan.

[@DiscoDashco]

No rinse. If you add oil to wet rice, it will cause popping and flying hot oil is dangerous. Brown the rice in the same oil the onions and garlic was cooked in, plus a little more to ensure there is a uniform coat on all the grains, then add all the powdered ingredients to that as it browns, stirring constantly. Blend the cooked onions & garlic with the tomatoes to make sauce, stir that in for a minute to coat the grains and cook a little before adding the HOT water. The Bullion isn’t necessary if chicken stock is substituted for water. Add a small pinch of cumin which isn’t mentioned in this recipe because the sprig of cilantro is used - add both anyway. The water is added last simply because all the flavor of the ingredients remain concentrated while marrying with the rice grains and yields a better flavor.

Ley del arroz: Dos tazas de agua por una de arroz. La receta del arroz blanco aún no la he podido descifrar 😅

[@bridgets.6540]

He estado cocinando arroz blanco desde chiquita, me enseñaron a agregar suficiente agua para cubrir el arroz como media cucharada de alto o un poquito más. Perdon- pongas la cucharada tocando el arroz y mides el agua de allí, no del base de la sartén 😅

[@bridgets.6540]

En fuego alto, hechas aceite y cebolla y revuelve un poco. Luego hechas el arroz y revuelva hasta cubrir el arroz con aceite, no se dore. Hechas agua hasta que cubre como media pulgada arriba del arroz, hecha sal al gusto y deja que se hierva un poco. después baja el fuego un poquito, como entre alto y medio (aqui es cuando me gusta agregar cilantro) no lo tapas. Cuando veas que se ha acabado casi toda el agua, tapa y pon el fuego muy bajo y lo dejas unas tal vez 10 o 12 minutos 🤷🏻‍♀️ La verdad no se cuanto tiempo ni se medidas, hago esto aunque la cantidad de arroz cambia y solo se cuando se ve listo 😅 Espero que esto te ayuda! 🙏🏽

Do we leave it at low the whole time??

No. After adding broth, bring to a boil and then simmer. I usually simmer mine for 15 minutes. Also, for every 1/2 cup of rice = 1 cup of broth. Hope thar helps.

Tomatoes have their own water/liquid. So one cup of water isn’t necessarily too little.

Muy rico

[@AzulVioleta34]

For every cup of rice add 2 cups of water so if you are making 2 cups of rice you are going to used 4 cups of water

[@productioncode]

Well she did blend the tomatoes (which have water in them) but I understand where your coming from

[@MariaDiaz-pw7jg]

First boil the tomatoes my secret is cover the pan with foil paper and then the cover …It makes if fluffier

[@mattymayo5892]

Jenny, how big of a skillet do I need for the red rice recipe you're showing here? I'm sure this is one of your pans, can I buy one separately at JC Penny or do I have to buy the whole set?

[@areamusic147]

Do I leave it cook on low?

The link is for another seasoning. I need a new option Knorr added a lot more parsley to their recipe and it no longer a staple in my kitchen pantry.

Looks delicious but you have multiple videos cooking Mexican red rice. Maybe I'll incorporate all of them. Thanks

Did she add water??

For white rice just blend water garlic onion salt chicken bouillon and before covering the rice add some leaves of Mexican epazote it’s going to taste delicious

May I ask what brand is your chicken bouillon?

Wow yours looks perfect!!! I have not tried making the sauce myself but it looks easy enough and delicious I think I’ll try this

[@dresendez3847]

Exactly how my family makes it absolutely the same 👍

[@Jazzywazz]

Yes, but the garlic should be fried for a while before you blend it w the tomatoes. Then you put back in and fry the tomatoes mixture for a few minutes before you put the Very hot water in. That's key. Hot water!!

[@MrValdez423]

How long do you toast the rice until adding the sause?
