Cooking in Australia

Missing my grandmother so much it hurts. I can't help to want a piece of her here with me. 

I decided to make her Spanish rice. 

Ingredients:

2 tbsp Olive Oil

1 large Onion: Chopped Finely

1 Garlic Clove: Minced

2 cups of medium or long White Rice

3 cups Chicken Broth

1 can Tomatoes

1 tsp Salt

Start by Browning the rice, onion, and garlic in olive oil for 4 minutes

Bring broth to a boil, add Tomatoes, orego, salt. Add Rice. Bring to a simmer, cover, lower heat and cook for 15 - 20 minutes. 

Green Chili. 

Not my grandmother's recipe but my own. Was delicious.
