Rice with cilantro and lime.

I tried Marascada for the third time and it was indeed the charm. I revised my recipe. It takes longer to make, but is no more difficult and completely rocks. I'm doing all kinds of cooking given that I have access to real ingredients for the first time in a while.

Chipotle is a fabulous Mexican chain restaurant out here. I inquired and got the simple scoop on how to make the delicous Mexican rice they serve.


Cook 1 cup basmatti rice according to directions.
Squeeze in juice from one lime
Add lots of cilantro
Stir.

That's it. Simple and good. There is a green hot sauce Cuban style I used to eat over rice and beans at a place called Sophies in New York that is my next project.

The burrito place? They are owned by McDonalds. I wish we had a burrito place out here. Moe's is a good one.

Try El Norteno just north of I-10 on 7th ave. A hole in the wall, but the food is great. Early evening BBQ with taquitos is a good bet.

Thanks for sharing the rice recipe, sounds good and simple. And thanks for the shipping advice. I think that's what we will do.

McDonald's owns Chipotle? That's a shocker. Chipotle has high quality food, not McShit.
