Heat oil in a saucepan

On medium heat, add rice to pan and stir frequently to avoid burning the rice

Add onion and garlic, and continue to stir mixture until the garlic starts to turn brown

Mix in the tomato and continue stirring the rice to avoid burning for about 1min

Smash up the tomato bouillon and mix into the saucepan. Try to dissolve the bouillon as much as possible.

If the bouillon has not completely dissolved but the rice looks like it's starting to burn, pour 1c of water and continue mixing.

Add another 1c water and raise heat to high. Bring to a full boil, stirring gently occasionally to ensure rice doesnt stick to the bottom.

Bring down heat to medium-low and cover. Allow to simmer for 15min.
Tip: do not take off the lid or touch the rice during this time.

Use a small spoon or fork to stick in the middle and gently push rice to the side just enough to see the bottom of the pan and make sure there isn't any more water remaining. If there is, replace cover and simmer for a couple more minutes.

Do not mix around rice! It will cause the rice to get mushy. Also be sure to do a taste test to make sure the top layer of rice has been cooked through. Then serve!
