INGREDIENTS 

1 cup basmati rice

1 1/3 cups filtered water

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 large clove of garlic, finely chopped

1/2 teaspoon fine grain pink salt

chopped cilantro

lime juice

lemon segments (directions below)

METHOD

1. Place rice in a pot and rinse three times with water. Add in filtered water, olive oil, salt, and garlic.

2. Bring to a boil and then lower to simmer. Once the majority of the water has evaporated, place the lid on the pot and cook for 5-10 more minutes.

3. While rice cooks, cut lemon in half. Use a knife to remove the skin. Cut into small pieces.

4. Turn the heat off. Taste for salt. Keep the lid on for another 5-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork.

5. Add chopped cilantro, lemon segments, and a squeeze of lime. Mix. Taste and adjust for seasoning.
