INSTRUCTIONS
Chop the onion, tomato, bell pepper and set aside.
All stirring called for in this recipe should be done with a fork to avoid
"mushing" the rice.
In a heavy skillet, heat the oil over high heat until very hot but not
quite smoking. Add the rice and stir. Fry the rice until it's golden
brown. (This is a very important step if you want "real" spanish rice.
Add the chopped onion, tomato, bell pepper, garlic powder, salt, and
comino. Stir for a couple of minutes until the vegetables are partially
cooked.
Add the tomato sauce and hot water. Stir until the mixture comes to a
boil.
Reduce heat and simmer until it reaches desired consistancy, stirring
occasionally.
