List of ingredients for Yellow rice (Mexican)


* 200g (7 oz) long grain rice
* 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
* 1 teaspoon ground achiote seeds (annatto powder)
* 1 small onion, finely chopped
* 2 Garlic cloves, crushed
* 475 ml (16 fl oz) good Vegetable or chicken stock
* 50 g (2 oz) pickled jalepeno chili slices
* sea salt
* Fresh coriander leaves, chopped

===Method===
* In a sieve, rinse the rice for a few minutes under cold running water to remove excess starch. The water should run clear once done
* Heat the oil in a pan and fry the onion and Garlic for 4 minutes until soft and translucent
* Add the annatto powder and fry for a further 3 minutes
* Mix the rice into the onion mix and stir well to coat all of the rice
* Add the stock, bring to the boil and simmer, covered, for 25 minutes or until the rice has absorbed all of the liquid. A sheet or so of tin-foil under the pan lid helps to make a good seal
* Add extra water if the rice dries out before it's cooked
* Add the chopped chillies and add salt to taste
