Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Ingredients

Rinse the red rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Chop the onion and mince the garlic.

2

Sauté Aromatics

In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-5 minutes.

3

Cook the Rice

Add the rinsed red rice to the saucepan, stirring to coat in the oil. Add the water, salt, black pepper, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil.

4

Simmer

Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and let it simmer for 30-35 minutes or until the rice is tender and the water has been absorbed.

5

Fluff and Serve

Remove from heat, discard the bay leaf, and fluff the rice with a fork. Stir in the chopped parsley and serve warm.
