After coming to Canada i got a chance to eat various cuisines, that's the advantage of working in a multi-cultural company. We have a pot luck quite frequently and i get to eat many food varieties. Sometimes its doubles from Trinidad and Tobago,Mexican rice and Burrito from Mexico,Quiche from Spanish colleagues,Pasta from Italy, Mac n Cheese from Canada and offcourse our humble Samosa.This Mexican rice is stuffed into the Burrito along with other suffing. First time when i ate Burrito i liked the flavour of the rice and it made me try this rice. It's a very simple and mild rice.
Calls for very few ingredients and which you will have in your pantry at any given point of time.Here is the recipe
