Wait, that sounds wrong.. You fry the uncooked rice first before boiling it with water? I'm getting Uncle Roger war flashbacks...

If you ask anyone from Latin America that's a common way to do it, it's a technique to give you a more loose rice different from asian rice. And we eat a lot of rice too but not as much as the average asian lol and usually it's mixed with beans - I was always been told that they complete each other and form a complete protein between their amino acids

The recipe I use is similar to the Peruvian recipe, with diced garlic.
