Simple fried rice

I make this rice a lot, very simple but a fun way to make white rice a little more special. For me that is trying to loose weight would call this weekend rice because I tend to stick to brown rice or something else on the weekdays, but I thought to share this one. My mom is the one who taught me this one so hope you enjoy it :D


4 servings:

2dl basmati white rice
4dl water
1 chicken bouillon
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 1/2 tablespoons butter

Take a medium pot and warm on high heat with the butter and oil. Put the rice RAW in the pot and stir a few times till you see the rice becomes whiter/fried, making sure you do not burn it. Pour the water over and put the chicken bouillon in and stir. Leave the rice and only stir 1 or 2 times(if you stir too often you ruin the rice and it becomes very sticky). When the water has evaporated turn off the heat under the pot but do not remove the pot, my mom learned this process from a friend, it will release anything that has gotten stuck to the bottom of the pot.

Here I have made this rice with scampi and a side salad :)

Bon Appetit!!
