I like to add some oil to a pan and brown the rice slightly with the bouillon seasoning. After browning, I make a well in the center and add the tomato purée. After slightly cooking the tomato purée, I like to add frozen veggies. While some people like green beans and/or carrots, my go to veggies are peas and corn. Finally, deglaze the pan with some of your measured water before throwing in the rest of the water and covering. What I need to start doing is adding a slice or 2 of onion when browning the rice. Hope you manage to make some good rice!
