RICE AND TOMATOES WITH CUMIN
I made this up when I had some rice and tomatoes left over. It turned out better then the dish I made the rice for -- I used a mix of wild and Jasmine rice, but any rice would do. Time does not include cooking rice.

ROASTED TOMATO RICE WITH CUMIN AND OREGANO
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450℉. Place tomatoes on a small baking sheet and cover with the garlic, piquín, oregano, cumin, olive oil and salt. Toss well. Place in the oven and let the tomatoes roast until completely wrinkled, mushy and slightly charred, about 25 minutes. Remove them from the oven.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a medium saucepan over medium to medium-high heat. Once hot, add the rice and stir to coat as it cooks for a minute. Make room in the middle and add the onion, stir to mix with the rice, and continue cooking until the rice grains change color to a deep bright white and feel heavier and make a louder sound as you stir, about 4 to 5 minutes.
- Add the chicken broth, orange juice, and salt and stir. Increase heat to medium high, and once it is bubbling strongly, add the roasted tomatoes with all their juices on top. Give it the gentlest stir, cover, and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 15 minutes, or until all liquid has been absorbed and you see no more at the bottom of the pan. Turn off heat and keep covered until you serve.

Steps:
- In a large saucepan bring 4 quarts water to a boil with the salt. Sprinkle in the rice, stirring until the water returns to a boil, and boil it for 10 minutes. Drain the rice in a colander and rinse it. Set the colander over a large saucepan of boiling water and steam the rice, covered with a kitchen towel and the lid, for 15 minutes, or until it is fluffy and dry. The rice may be made 1 day in advance and kept covered and chilled. Reheat the rice in a steamer over boiling water. In a saucepan cook the onion in the oil over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until it is softened, add the tomatoes with the reserved juice, and cook the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes. In a bowl combine well the rice, the tomato mixture, and salt and pepper to taste.
RICE AND CUMIN
Steps:
- Heat the oil in a heavy saucepan with a lid. When the oil is hot, but not smoking, add the onions and saute them for 30 seconds.
- Add the garlic; then, stir in the rice and cumin. Stir well to coat the grains of rice with the oil, and then add the chicken stock or broth. Bring to a boil, uncovered, stirring occasionally, over high heat. Then, reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 20 minutes. The liquid should be completely absorbed by the rice, which should be tender.
- Fluff the rice with a fork and serve it with the cusk.

RICE WITH CHICKPEAS AND TOMATOES
This grain-and-bean duo makes a basic, hearty main dish. Some steamed broccoli or green beans and a colorful salad complete the meal.
Yield 4 to 6 servings
Number Of Ingredients 6
Steps:
- Bring 3 cups water to a simmer in a large saucepan. Stir in the rice, cover, and simmer gently until the water is absorbed, about 35 minutes.
- Stir the remaining ingredients into the rice and cook until everything is heated through. Serve at once.
- Even those who aren't keen on beans might make an exception for versatile, tasty chickpeas, a.k.a. garbanzos. Americans have come to appreciate them in popular Middle Eastern, Indian, and Mediterranean dishes (such as hummus). If they have a drawback, it's their long cooking time-up to three hours. In this case, the canned version has a definite advantage.
- Mashed and seasoned, chickpeas make an excellent sandwich spread (see Chickpea Spread, page 239).
- Pureed, they thicken hearty vegetable soups and make a good base for dips (see Hummus, page 229).
- Chickpeas are delicious in green salads, or as the main ingredient in heartier salads (see Chickpea Salad with Roasted Peppers and Chickpea and Tomato Salad, page 42).

Tips:
- Choose the right ingredients: Use long-grain rice for this recipe, as it holds its shape well and won't become mushy. Choose ripe, juicy tomatoes for the best flavor.
- Toast the cumin seeds: Toasting the cumin seeds before adding them to the dish will bring out their flavor and aroma.
- Cook the rice properly: Be sure to rinse the rice thoroughly before cooking to remove any starch. Use a ratio of 1 cup of rice to 2 cups of water or broth for best results.
- Don't overcook the tomatoes: Cook the tomatoes just until they are softened but still hold their shape. Overcooking will make them mushy.
- Season to taste: Be sure to taste the dish before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed.
Conclusion:
This simple yet flavorful rice and tomatoes with cumin dish is a perfect weeknight meal. It's easy to make, healthy, and delicious. Serve it with a side of yogurt or raita for a complete meal.
