🛑 I'm your host Stephanie and behind the camera, you have my sister Cloud (☁️). I started cooking at 4 years of age. What?! Yes (LOL) I pulled up a chair and my first choice was to fry an egg. I was hungry and that’s all I have to say about that experience. I would like to say I’m completely self-taught in the kitchen, but I have the lovely women in my family to thank. They taught me to honor my ancestors and to make my Mexican Cuisine comfortable for my home. I thank our creator for my curiosity and my never-ending search for the next gastronomic satiation. Cooking is a huge part of my daily life as I prepare breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks for my two American Korean/Mexican boys. I know who does that these days? Me, I homeschool my two boys and I’m grateful for every moment spent. ❤️ If you love our spectacular homemade recipes, Please take the time to Subscribe and support our channel.

This reminds me of my little nephew asking his mom for some "orange rice". We're not Mexican but my nephew was being looked after by a Mexican family while my sister and her husband work. Since the pandemic he hasn't been able to go to their house so he asked his mom to make this. He complained to his mom that it's not the same. I'll be sure to share this video with my sister so she can make this for her son and hopefully my nephew will like it.

[@vkklynn88]

😂🤣 orange rice, how cute!

[@Gmom-xp2yl]

We are American Mexican s And my grandson says the same thing calls it orange rice We eat different kind of rice brown White and fried

[@notyoma8773]

Gmom 1220 if I heard orange rice I’d think about chicken tikka Marsala (East Indian rice)

[@leonormartinez9108]

Aww how sweet🤗

[@marialopez531]

Did he like it?

[@bgalindo86]

♥️And the farmworkers!!! We are 110ºF+ in SoCal, Coachella Valley and our farmworkers are out there in the humidity and heat. Gracias por darnos de comer! Orgullo Hispano!

[@desertrat5543]

The heat here has been insane! You are so right... lots of gratitude for the farmworkers 🌹

[@beckyrubin3754]

Bobbie Galindo We wouldn’t have food without them ❤️

[@kpee2496]

I lived in Yuma, AZ for 2 years. Loved the Mexican food, and I'm from the seasonless scandinavian north!

[@ronicordova7486]

I just got done making the Instant-pot rice recipe! “Views On the Road Queens” Lady’s let me tell I’m in love. This rice tasted exactly like my auntie rice! She has severe dementia so trying to ask for the recipe... Is impossible when I first tried this rice. I cried because it tastes just like hers. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. Now I have it and I will keep it closed to my hear!!! 😊

[@isabelpatton5567]

Love the sisterhood cooking and I love that you showed the stove top because I don't have a insta pot! Thank y'all from Texas ❤️!

[@vkklynn88]

Fellow Texan 👋🏾🙌🏾🤠

[@desireerenee8713]

"Make it comfortable for your home!" I absolutely love personality and over all just how you carry yourself!!

[@crispycaboodles]

Grandma was mad that she liked it even though it was made with brujeria aka instant pot 🤣 delicious thank you ladies

[@Viewsontheroad]

Tell her we said hello! 🤗 our Great grandmother use an olla prestó, but back then they would burst 🤭 have a lovely night, see you soon 💛🌹

[@SugarSkullBudgets]

😂🤣

[@kymoonman5276]

I don’t think your abrupt at all. I love your channel. I miss my Southern California/ Mexican food. I have enjoyed your recipes/videos, o so much. I’m very thankful. Love you and Cloud !!

[@sjohnschafer]

It’s just like some people think Pennsylvanians are always yelling at them 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@erandyc6508]

For those with picky onion eaters, instead of diced onion you can use ring slices of onion and take them out later

[@Viewsontheroad]

Great tip! Thank you for sharing 💕

[@dawncatalano7443]

You can also grate the onion and then they can't feel it and the taste is not as strong.

[@marisamrob]

I do that 👍 I add ring onion and 1 or 2 garlics in half, and remove them after cooking 👌 my girls don't even know 😁😁👌

[@tonyhernandez4185]

Or blend it .

[@chulizmixa3476]

I’m allergic to spicy food, including onions. Do you guys suggest another replacement for onion ?

[@meutod2]

Yes please! Instant pot recipes are so helpful! I’ve made delicious instant pot refried beans- I amazed myself 😂

[@Viewsontheroad]

I'm proud of you 🤗

[@vkklynn88]

THANK YOU FOR BOTH BUT ESPECIALLY THE INSTANT POT VERSION 💜💜💜🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🥰🥰🥰😘😘😘

[@mommabearof5810]

Omg my family stays fed with these recipes 😃 thanks so much for the good food & laughs

[@ilmari23]

Love that you provided a variation for both stove top and instant pot! Thank you :)

[@jackiebessard7988]

mari h ~ been looking for version they sell in ‘restaurants’ where Rice is brown? But haven’t found yet

[@ilmari23]

jackie bessard Im sorry i dont think I’ve never had that in restaurants. Are you sure it was mexican rice? Mexican rice is typically like this but orange bc of the tomato. Perhaps try using this same recipe but with brown rice?

[@davec.551]

I want to say a HUGE thank you for your videos, I really love learning authentic Mexican cooking from you and you make it fun and easy! I have enjoyed making several of your recipes and every one of them have been a hit with my family! We especially love the banter between you and your sister and obviously you are a great fighter as well :) Take care and God bless!

[@pttLA]

The best tutorial for this kind of rice by far 🙌🏼, you’re so patient and explain everything very clear by showing us step by step.. I appreciate this so much. Thank you!

[@sabrinaguerrero7567]

One of the biggest problems I have is making rice. Either I cook it too long or not long enough or I season it too much or too little. This recipe is definitely going to make me give it another shot. Love you ladies! Thanks for sharing your amazing recipes! ❤️❤️❤️

[@AracelyPLara]

Tip* After you add your liquid, sprinkle your spices in and taste it before it starts to boil. If you like the taste , then finish your process. ( I don’t measure my spices, LOL)

[@dianariojas13]

I cover mine and cook on low for exactly 18 minutes. Perfect every time.

[@doloresbutler3]

I am a sopa de arroz lover so I can really appreciate your versatile ways of making it. I personally love peas and carrots in my rice. Thank you and Cloud for doing such a great video. It helps to know that you can cook this rice in an instant pot or pressure cooker like I had in the 70's. This pot is much easier to use and has more options. I have been cooking Mexican food for 51 years and I still enjoy learning new techniques. You guys rock!

[@Kviale76]

Finally someone who cooks rice like me (and my mom)! Thank you for the Instant Pot recipes. I just bought mine, made the carnitas recipe and feel like my life is changed. 🙂

[@ilovenails1276]

Yay love my instant pot too best thing I ever bought 👏🏼💖

[@chandranautiyal4974]

Steph, a big THANK YOU to you for fulfilling my unspoken wish for Mexican rice! I have made it so many times but always hanker for the Mexican subtle spice flavors!😍😘 Bless you and Cloud & your families!

[@shirleymalveaux9178]

Thanks for all the instant pot recipes! You read my mind 😂

[@miriamperales7679]

I have never cooked rice uncovered... Very interesting. I always turn the heat off for the last 5 minutes of cooking and let the steam finish cooking my rice (while covered). Thank you for sharing all your amazing recipes ladies!

[@julias7920]

I don't think she cooked it uncovered. I think she just didn't show that part. Her other rice video she linked in the description shows her cooking it with a lid on.

[@TheLesliemaria]

Finally! Thank you for the tips! I can now say my rice is right! I think your tip about letting your rice dry, using less than 2 to 1 water, and browning it well was key. Gracias amigas!

[@christiroberts8817]

Ladies, I made the stove top rice tonight. Used tomato sauce and Romas with everything else and it was DELICIOUS! Thank you!!

[@mlebron56]

I am so glad I found your channel! I love authentic mexican food and now I can learn to cook it at home. I am Puerto Rican that enjoys trying different cuisine and I enjoy your humor when cooking delicious meals. Keep up the great great work

[@bronxtress]

Thanks for this recipe, Steph! I’m Afrolatina and the difference in Puerto Rican rice and Mexican rice is subtle, but it counts. I’ve tried making Mexican rice or Sopa de Arroz a few times before and it just didn’t work for me. Your recipe helped! The broth AND bouillon definitely made the difference this time. So good! Gracias, mamichula!

[@barbararequa7797]

Thank You Ladies You Really R The Best.NO OTHER COOKIN SHOW THE BEST.IS RIGHT HERE GODBLESS YOU BOTH

[@whoiswaynereynolds5457]

Hola Amigas! You know I love me some rice!!!!!!!!!!

[@davidcantu87]

[@haillynnortiz6787]

Reminds me of my childhood! Wow looking at this makes me mouth watered

[@jennyumm89]

This video makes so much more sense than other Instant Pot Mexican rice recipes on KZbin. Very simple, not a lot of unnecessary ingredients.

[@ireneb.6944]

I liked the instapot version 😁👍🏼 and now I need to get one ☺️

[@vidam8175]

I'm tuned in to the video. "OHH yeah😁

[@kileycramer8933]

I just followed this recipe and it is the best Mexican rice ive ever made! The insta pot takes the guess out of how low to simmer the rice! Thanks for sharing love you!

[@Jaeda2Ashley]

Thank you for showing both!!!

[@ashes5122]

I love watching your show ! Thank you for showing / teaching me new things ❤️❤️

[@Viewsontheroad]

You are so welcome ❤️

[@cookingwithmaisha675]

As always you’re food looks AMAZING!

[@danielleh1762]

Great basic starter recipe as she calls it. Such a versatile dish. With my rice, green bell pepper sautéed in with the onion and garlic sets it off. Also comino (cumin), a little powdered garlic and powdered onion (I use both fresh and powdered) in with the chicken or tomato chk bouillon. Sometimes I like to add corn or small chunks of carrot, just depends how I'm feeling.

[@leonormartinez9108]

That's how i make mine too👍

[@converseuser5078]

I instantly became hungry watching this

[@mellygarcia.3277]

I love this.

[@nevil7panchal828]

Both rice looks tempting 😍

[@woolpuppy]

You guys are like family to me. I love your videos

[@Da1UdReAmAbOuT]

Another FIRE recipe! I usually make my Spanish rice on the stove but decided to give it a try in my IP. I used a Roma tomato onions garlic and chicken flavor blended it all up like a soup and never in my LIFE have I Mastered 1 cup of rice like this before! I usually have to make minimum 2 cups to really get it right. My husbands jaw dropped and said it was the best rice I EVER made him. I shined like a rockstar. Thanks Chicas!😘

[@strawberrybounce2]

You're truly the best! My go-to for great recipes! Thank you!!!

[@mrsmk27]

Looks divine

[@mrscp04]

Girl!! How’d you know I just got a new instapot that I’m fumbling learning how to use! Lol My Mexican hubby is gonna be over the moon now cuz I’m gunna make arroz mexicano better than his momma!!! 😂 thanks a bunch! I’m subbing!!

[@arleanea4609]

I been waiting for this and your using the instant pot ♡

[@myocdtv7935]

Love that you Thank our truckers! ❤

[@malibuluv209]

Thank you! I ended up doing the stove top version but adding a fresh diced Roma, and 4 Oz tomato sauce (2 Oz pato yellow can, and 2 Oz hunts) gave it the perfect flavor. First time ever making mexican rice.

[@melaniesolano3462]

I’ve been waiting for this ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@delmag8967]

Of only it wasnt 11pm , you ladies made me hungry with this recipe, provecho!!!

[@ewhite6172]

We love making spanish rice! 🥰 In our home it ends up being a main dish. First we cook a pack or two bacon and save the bacon as a topping. Then use the bacon oil to fry the rice and onions. We add the liquid and use a can tomato paste, adding the desired amount of chili powder, cumin, oregano, pepper, salt, and of course cilantro . Throw a lid and set the heat to low and cook 20+ minutes. Top with bacon bits, salsa, sourcream, cilantro and onion. I usually make tons when I do and fry an egg to top it when we eat it for breakfast.😘

[@DK-qj7cr]

E White : a pack or 2??!! My kinda cooking 🤣😂🤣😂👏🏻👏🏾👏🏻👏🏽

[@kristinauballe9551]

I just love rice

[@RC-ib4vh]

[@Viewsontheroad]

Our pleasure!

[@ann6030]

Love both rice recipes & have cooked rice both ways! I prefer added chunky tomatoes! Love Mexican rice!!😍♥️♥️♥️

[@angelortega2184]

I am Puerto Rican and I do love Mexican food also so some of my food is combined styles. I also have Asian friends who I learned alot from so some times I combine all 3 styles. So I rinse my Rice 3 times in a big bowl with cold water. So each time I just pour the water out carefully so the rice stays in the bowl. Now I fill the bowl up with cold water up to the first line of my finger and stop. Now I put it aside for 1 hour soaking. Now in the Rice pot I put oil to fry chicken on Thighs or drum sticks. Place the chicken in the oil and put adobo,cumin and Sazón with 3 caps of vinegar and rub into chicken well. Then Fry the chicken completely done then take chicken out to cool onto a plate. Now in same pot saute on medium high 1 diced onion and 2 diced Jalapeños and 4 garlic cloves till it is nice and brown. Now take all the chicken off the bone and add to the pot mixing all ingredients together. Then add your rice and the water it was in. 1 can of diced tomatoes and my favorite 1 can of Goya Roman Beans it is a higher level then Pinto beans. You add a hand full of cilantro 2 packs of Sazón con achiote then last add Adobo in a circle according to how many cups of rice. I cook 6 cups at a time so go around 6 times with the Adobo upside down then when you reach the 6th time throw a sprinkle in the center of the pot for good luck. Mix all ingredients again and let it come to a boil mixing again and cover do not touch the top for 30 min. Buen Provecho You will love it eat it with cheese and Jalapeños melted in a Tortilla rolled up

[@kathleenrice2620]

We made Spanish rice tonight. I usually add a little tomato paste, but next time I will use tomato sauce. Thank you for the recipes.

[@sistasoljah9660]

[@ngonzaleful]

I tried the Mexican rice in the Insta Pot yesterday and it came out perfect. I never know what settings to use and the pot mostly sits there unused. I don’t consider myself a cook, but truly enjoy your channel! Keep up the inspiring work!!

[@thelmaconnolly6002]

[@vic82ism]

Perfecto 👌

[@blessedmama4361]

Yes!! I’ve been blending my tomato, onion and garlic for years for the daycare kids. And now do it for mine..

[@TheMcmejia]

It’s nice to see other people’s own way of making rice I learned a few diff ways to make it and this one looks simple and yummy might try it too! I normally make mine with 2 fresh tomatoes half an onion and one garlic piece throw it in the blender with a little bit of water and blend add that to the rice after toasting in oil then add 2 cups of chicken broth and on top of that add a little of chicken bunion and the tomato bunion to give it a more red color :)

[@veronicameza3246]

Loved this recipe TY!

[@sixdinnersyd]

I made these last night with your refried beans. Really good. And thank you for including directions for both InstantPot and stovetop. Next time I will do stovetop as I don't think my Saute/Sashay function on my InstantPot gets hot enough. Great flavor!

[@Nanis-World]

Love you guys so much!!!

[@amandacox3923]

Ladies!!! Let me start off by saying y’all are Mexican food God’s! 🙌🏼 although I’m your typical “guera” 😆 I was born and raised in a border town (Yuma, Arizona) literally 5-10 minutes from the Sonoran Mexico border so I know real authentic Mexican food- We moved to Texas in 2015 and they don’t know Mexican food to save their lives!!! 🤮🤮 Y’all’s videos give me absolute life & comfort. I made this rice last night AND YES!!!! So much yes!!! I binge watched your channel the other night and I will be making SOOOOO many of your dishes. Thank you for being my home away from home hermanas. 😁❤️💚

[@NaeNaeW]

Cloud what a soothing way to tell us to add the garlic. 😄💟💟

[@snlgallardo]

I bet it smells and taste great. Our family makes it with chicken and rice. It's a get together family favorite.. 💛

[@claudiacaballero8247]

Cut up half a green bell pepper into big chunks and add right before water is poured. OMG!!! Takes the flavor to the next level.

[@Tallie602]

I absolutely love my instant pot and the fact that I can make arroz. I think my boyfriend will be happy with this recipe!

[@gladys6643]

Love❤ how you wash your rice not many do my mother always washed everything 💯 👌
