HOW TO MAKE FRIED BEEF AND RICE
Step 1: Season the meat with salt, nutmeg, pepper, paprika, two chopped garlic cloves, white wine, Worcestershire sauce and bay leaf. Let marinate for 1 hour.
Step 2: In a saucepan, add 50 ml (1/4 cup) olive oil and one chopped garlic clove. Sauté on a low heat for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the rice and season with salt. Stir and fry the rice for 1 to 2 minute. Pour the chicken broth and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. When starts boiling, reduce to low heat and cook for 10 to 12 minutes. Turn off the heat and set aside.
Step 3: In a skillet, add the remaining olive oil and a chopped onion. Sauté on a low heat until the onion start to turn golden brown, stirring occasionally. Add the beef with the marinade and fry on a medium-low heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 4: Add the rice to the skillet, mix everything nicely and turn off the heat. Sprinkle with chopped coriander and serve.
TIPS FOR COOKING RICE
1. We usually use long-grain rice or medium-grain rice but you can use another type of rice. Long-grain rice is looser while medium-grain rice is creamier and absorb much more the flavors.
Rice cooking time: about 10 to 12 minutes for long-grain rice and 13 to 15 minutes for medium-grain rice.
2. We fry the rice for about 1 to 2 minutes to gain more flavor and to be looser. Frying the rice will shorten the cooking time.
3. To make the rice tastier, fry the rice in olive oil, chopped garlic and butter (or margarine).
4. Another thing we usually do is to cook the rice with chicken broth to give the rice even more flavor (if you cook the rice with chicken broth, reduce the amount of salt).
5. The amount of water for the rice depends on each person's taste. The mesure we usually use is 250 ml (about 1 cup) to 300 ml (1 1/3 cups) of water per 100 grams (1/2 cup) rice.
6. Always cook the rice with a lid and over low heat to prevent the rice from burning and sticking to the bottom of the pan.
