Before cooking the rice, sauté it for a few minutes in a dash of olive oil (or a little butter) with:
1 clove of garlic, chopped
A little onion
Maybe add some spices like cumin, turmeric, bay leaf, or even a touch of curry.
This seals the grain and adds a spectacular aroma. Try it once and you’ll never want to go back to “regular” rice.
Other pro tips:
A bay leaf while boiling = total elegance
A squeeze of lemon juice at the end = instant freshness A little shredded coconut and coconut milk if you’re going for Caribbean-style rice
