YELLOW RICE WITH EVERYTHING



Yellow Rice With Everything image

This is a yellow rice dish that my husband "created" in his mind. Of course, I had to make the culinary magic happen, but at least he contributed! A very good rice dish that can be served on the side, or as the main course.

Categories     White Rice

Time 55m

Yield 3/4 cup, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup white rice
2 cups water
sazon goya with coriander and annatto
1 smoked sausage or 1 kielbasa
1/2 cup frozen mixed vegetables
1 tablespoon oil or 1 tablespoon margarine
1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)
1/4 cup onion, diced small
1/4 cup green pepper, diced small

Steps:

  • Cut kielbasa/smoked sausage into small cubes. After cutting, brown in a frying pan for about 2-3 minutes until the sausage is heated through and slightly browned. Place into a separate dish but leave the oil produced from the kielbasa in the pan. In the same pan that the sausage was removed from, cook onions and green peppers until soft.
  • In a medium sized pot, put water, rice, oil, 1 packet of sazon, and salt together and bring to a boil. Once this begins to boil, turn it down to a low heat setting and simmer for about 20 minutes with the lid on, but tilted to release air.
  • When water is almost completely absorbed into the rice, add vegetables and kielbasa (with the oil that the kielbasa produced). Stir and cover.
  • Cook covered until rice is fluffy and tender, about another 5-10 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right rice: For yellow rice, use a long-grain rice like basmati or jasmine. These types of rice have a light, fluffy texture that pairs well with the vegetables and spices in the dish.
  • Rinse the rice before cooking: This helps to remove any excess starch and ensures that the rice cooks evenly.
  • Use a flavorful broth: The broth you use to cook the rice will add a lot of flavor to the dish, so choose a broth that you enjoy the taste of. Vegetable broth, chicken broth, or beef broth are all good options.
  • Add vegetables: Vegetables add color, texture, and nutrients to yellow rice. Almost any vegetable can be used, so feel free to experiment with your favorites. Some good options include carrots, peas, corn, bell peppers, and green beans.
  • Use spices: Spices are essential for giving yellow rice its characteristic flavor. Common spices used in yellow rice include turmeric, cumin, coriander, and garam masala. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little heat.
  • Cook the rice until it is tender: The cooking time for yellow rice will vary depending on the type of rice you are using. Be sure to follow the package directions for the best results.

Conclusion:

Yellow rice with vegetables is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a main course or a side dish. It is a great way to use up leftover vegetables, and it is also a good source of fiber and nutrients. With its vibrant color and flavorful spices, yellow rice is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
