My mom is from Nuevo Laredo, Mexico and this is how she has been making rice all her life. One day I finally stopped and measured the amounts she used while cooking. In my view this is the perfect Mexican rice. It's not too greasy or dry, nice color, and great flavor. The Serrano pepper will add flavor but no heat to this recipe since it is used whole and not chopped. If you would like spicy Mexican rice, de-seed and chop the Serrano before adding it to the mix.

I am a terrible rice cook, but once I tried this method I can be confident that it will turn out every time!

Indian saffron is darker and richer in red-orange color than Spanish or Italian saffron, giving rice a better flavor. You should always steep the saffron in hot water ahead of time and use part of the liquid in your recipe. This rice recipe is prepared in the Indian manner.

A great recipe for leftover pork chops, roasts, and more. A few bits from the fridge turn into a tasty dinner in less than 45 minutes.

You can also use chicken or substitute some of the veggies for what you have on hand when cleaning out the fridge. Serve with sweet Thai chili sauce on the side.
