Mexican Rice


INGREDIENTS
1/4 cup and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cups uncooked long-grain rice
2 teaspoons garlic salt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 cup tomato sauce
4 cups chicken broth

DIRECTIONS
Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat and add rice. Cook, stirring constantly, until puffed and golden. While rice is cooking, sprinkle with salt and cumin.
Stir in onions and cook until tender. Stir in tomato sauce and chicken broth; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes. Fluff with a fork.

NOTE:sometimes the rice will not puff up, so you can cook it first then add to the other ingredients and put in a rice cooker
