It's just like in the restaurants! I can't believe it! Thank you so much, Mama!! Now I have to see what other recipes you have on here! Thank you, thank you!

Thank you so much! You and your family are so wholesome, and it's amazing to watch. My father left when I was a boy, and I didn't get to be with the Mexican side of my family. Watching your videos and recreating your dishes has filled the void I feel I have been missing in my life, and I am passing what I am learning onto my kids (all 6). They are grateful, just as am I. Thank you so much, and I look forward to more of your videos!

I love this recipe mainly because there’s nothing to cut everything is in powder form. It makes it very convenient and fast thank you for sharing.

Your Mom is a wonderful cook and a beautiful person. And you, my friend, sound like a boy who loves his Momma.

I love toasting the rice before steaming. It smells like popcorn. I was taught to make rice in 2s... the rice to water ratio is 1:2, then you boil it hard for me 2 minutes, then reduce to low heat and steam for 20 minutes, covered tightly. All 2s!

I am so happy my husband came across your KZread Channel and this video with you and your Mom making Spanish rice! My recipe was very similar but I could never quite get it to come out the same each time. I used onions/garlic - now I use the powders and it is wonderful! Thank you so much. We love your videos.

One of the best aromas ever is when you add tomatoes and spices to the browned rice just before adding the stock. I make my arroz the exact same way, but I was always taught to add a few slices of green peppers and a little sprig of cilantro on top. Arnie's right...mexican rice is good by itself, as a side, and extremely good when you add a little into a bowl of beans and/or caldos.

It took me months to perfect this. Frying the rice is crucial. I use half an onion, diced fine, 1 garlic clove pressed, no cumin, but I use a tablespoon of chicken bullion, a tea spoon of this tomate bullion, tomato sauce and chicken stock as well. I can eye ball the rice but it’s roughly 2 cups rice, half a cup of tomato sauce, and about 2 1/2 -3 cups of stock. I bring to a boil, salt and fresh ground pepper, and then cover on the lowest simmer setting for 20 mins. Leave the lid on and don’t touch it.

Mexican rice is my favorite! I learned from my grandmother 45 years ago! She has since passed away. But I learned how to make lots of traditional Mexican dishes from her. I always get compliments from friends when I make Mexican foods. That cast iron pot looks great. 👌

This is a little different from my family’s recipe, pero se ve bien. Her advice is solid. They browned the rice well. That’s very important. I don’t sauté the tomato sauce before I add my liquid but this make so much sense to me. I use this technique when cooking various sauces. I’ve just never done it when I cook my rice because that’s now how I was taught. But I am trying it next time! This make perfect sense. Gracias Señora.

Thank you so much. I grew up in the valley texas and now in Florida. I made this rice for the first time ever cooking rice.. now I'm the one who makes the best rice in the family. Thank you so much again. Love this channel

The love you have for your Mother really shows. Can’t wait to taste her rice recipe!

I cook my Mexican rice with chopped onion and garlic and a slice of bell pepper cooked with the white rice till browned && Then once it's brown enough I throw in tomato sauce like 3.5 oz. And then add the water and a Table spoon of boullian. And BAM best rice ever.

That's how I make my rice too, gives it delicious flavor. 😋Yum!

I am one homesick Texan after watching all these recipes! Thanks for helping me up my game with all the tips and tricks. Even though I can't find good Mexican food here, I can sure as heck cook it! 🤠

Me too, just moved to the east coast from So Cal and the one thing I really really miss is quality Mexican food. It just doesn't seem to exist back east.

I miss McAllen Texas 😢

Thank you. Love your relationship with your mom❤

One of the things I love about watching mothers and grandmothers cook is how it becomes almost an art. I used to watch my mother and grandmother cook and it was almost magic how they knew exactly what was needed and whether the dish was done.

So true, my mother never weighed or measured a thing when cooking or baking. All done by feel and the eye. Really is an art.

My wife and mother-in-law are Hispanic and I am truly blessed that they both make the most delicious Mexican/Spanish/Tex-Mex rice I have ever eaten in my life. At age 65, I have the waist to prove it! LOL. Isn't it a blessing to see these family recipes passed from generation to generation! Best wishes to you and yours from north Texas! 😎👍🏻

Arnie, I love your Mama, This is exactly how my Mom made her "BEST SPANISH RICE" on the planet When I became an adult many years ago, I would not eat restaurant Spanish rice. The gravely tone of her voice will forever be in my ears, "DO NOT STIR"!!!!! Arnie, I love your great channel, thank you for doing these shows.

I grew up eating TexMex here in the Panhandle of Texas. My 1st meal at a restaurant was at Nacio's Mex. Restaurant when I was less than 2 years old. I've been enjoying this food now for about 70 years. I love to cook it also. Thank you and your Mom for this wonderful recipe and step by step making it. It just makes me happy to watch this video. God Bless both of you!

I toasted rice for the first time using your mom's steps, and OH MAN did it turn out wonderful. I even made sure to heat up the stock when cooking the rice. You have a dedicated follower for sure.
