Rice, better than ever!

Conventional oven, Easy, Oven, Vegan, Vegetarian

Ingredients

750 gr (26.5 oz.) long grain white rice + double the amount of water
2 tbs onion powder
2 tbs garlic powder
1 tbs ground coriander
1 tbs ground turmeric
10 threads saffron or 1 tsp of American saffron
20 cherry tomatoes
1 tbs salt
4 tbs extra virgin olive oil

Method

Rice meets spice and colour, a feast for the eyes and taste buds!

Preheat your Fornetto or conventional oven to 175℃ (350℉).
Combine all ingredients in an oven-proof pot, reserving the tomatoes, cover and bake for 50 minutes or until most of the liquid has been absorbed. Monitor for doneness.
Add the cherry tomatoes and continue to bake until all the liquid has been absorbed and the tomatoes have fallen, about a further 15 minutes.
Remove from the oven and place a couple of paper towels over the rice. Cover with the lid and allow to sit for 10 minutes.
Fluff with a fork and serve immediately.

Tip: Add a couple of whole hot peppers to the pot for a spicy treat!
