Rice with onions as a side dish

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 40 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make rice in a frying pan with onions as a side dish? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. Any variety of rice can be used. I prefer to use long grain steamed for garnish. You can take any spices to suit your taste. First, peel the onion and rinse it in running cold water so that it does not sting your eyes. Finely chop the peeled onion.

2. STEP 2

   

   Pour some vegetable oil into a hot frying pan and place chopped onions on it. Fry it, stirring, for a couple of minutes until golden brown.

3. STEP 3

   

   While the onions are frying, prepare the rice. Rinse it several times until you get clean, clear water.

4. STEP 4

   

   Add a piece of butter to the onion in the pan and wait until it melts.

5. STEP 5

   

   Then add the rinsed rice and stir to coat it with the melted butter. Add salt, spices and turmeric. Mix everything.

6. STEP 6

   

   Pour water over the rice and bring everything to a boil. Then cover the pan with a lid, reduce the heat and cook the rice until cooked. This will take 15-20 minutes.

7. STEP 7

   

   While cooking, check the rice for softness and monitor the water level. You can initially add not all the water, but only 2/3 of it and add more if necessary if there is not enough water. But you will need to add hot water so as not to change the temperature of the dish being prepared. Serve the side dish of rice hot with any meat or fish dishes. Bon appetit!

A great idea to cook rice with onions as a side dish in a frying pan. I, like the author, have long-grain, steamed rice. I washed it 9 times and soaked it in water for an hour. Then I washed it again. An excellent tip is to add butter, the taste becomes soft and velvety. I didn’t add any spices except turmeric. The rice turned out great, with an incredibly beautiful color. The side dish is simply festive, so “elegant”, ceremonial. Thank you very much, first of all, for the aesthetic pleasure, then for the gastronomic pleasure!

I love buckwheat, but... rice with onions, and soup is what I eat as medicine))) True, I grind the onions before adding them to the rice!)) Health to everyone!
