The story behind
The combination of sweet corn with the freshness of coriander creates a perfect balance that enhances any main course, from grilled fish to chicken cordon bleu. It is a recipe that stands out for its technical simplicity and impeccable presentation.
Instructions
-
11. Initial Sauté: In a saucepan, heat the oil and sauté the rice with the garlic and onion until the grains look translucent and slightly toasted (without browning) to create a professional base.
-
22. Cooking the Rice: Add the hot water or broth and salt to taste. Stir in the corn kernels. Cover and cook over very low heat for 15-18 minutes until the liquid is completely absorbed.
-
33. Fresh Touch: Once the rice is cooked and still hot, remove the onion and garlic. Add the finely chopped fresh coriander.
-
44. Fluffing: Gently fluff the rice with a fork to distribute the cilantro and corn without breaking the grains, maintaining a loose and professional texture. Let it rest, covered, for 5 minutes.
-
55. Presentation: Serve on a clean plate, ideally garnished with an extra touch of fresh coriander or accompanied by steamed vegetable batons for a harmonious and homemade finish.
