@eats.by.v: Easy Arroz con Gandules 🇵🇷🍚 A Puerto Rican holiday staple, perfect for your Thanksgiving or Christmas table! ✨ 1. Heat oil in a pot over medium heat. Add a large cooking spoonful of sofrito (approximately ¼-½ cup). 2. Stir in ½ can of tomato sauce. Season to taste with chicken bouillon, onion powder, garlic powder, Goya Sazón Completa, Loisa Adobo, Loisa Sazón, and ground oregano. Mix well. 3. Add olives with a splash of their brine, 1 can of gandules, and 2 cups of water. Stir, cover, and cook for 3 minutes. 4. Add cilantro and 2 cups of long-grain rice. Stir and do the spoon test—the spoon should stand upright in the rice. 5. Cover and cook over medium heat for about 12 minutes, or until most of the liquid has been absorbed. 6. Gently mound the rice into a mountain in the center of the pot. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for another 10–12 minutes. 7. Turn off the heat and let the rice rest, covered, for 10 minutes. 8. Fluff and serve! 🍚✨ #cookwithme #PuertoRicanFood #EasyRecipes #HolidayRecipes #cookingrecipes
