Arroz Primavera

Don’t be fooled by the colour of this Arroz Primavera. It may look similar to our Mexican Rice recipe, but the preparation and taste is different. This is the perfect easy Mexican side dish to prepare for midweek meals. A warm and lovely rice recipe that won’t take you much effort to prepare. A classic arroz primavera recipe is made with fluffy white rice and spring vegetables, but we couldn’t help adding a bit of Gran Luchito magic when preparing our white rice with veggies. We decided to use a bit of Gran Luchito Guajillo Fajita and Taco Mix! This spice mix is perfect when seasoning your dishes to give extra flavour in a speedy way. We love having a little jar of this magic in our spice cabinet to add a little pinch here and there to our meals. To make rice primavera you will need: Rice: basmati, jasmine or long grain rice (this being our favourite). Just bear in mind that you’ll need to adjust the cooking liquid ratio when you use different kinds of rice. Vegetables: carrots, sweetcorn, peas, red peppers, and sometimes green beans are mostly used to make this classic recipe. Flavour and Seasoning: vegetable or chicken stock and butter is used to cook the rice, as it brings a lovely buttery flavour to the fluffy rice and veg. Guajillo Fajita & Taco Mix adds the right amount of seasoning in a very speedy way. * Chefs Tip: when cooking rice, don’t forget to wash it using a sieve under the tap, until the water runs clear at the bottom. This is to remove some of the starch and to keep the shape of your rice when cooked without getting mushy.
