Easy Spanish Yellow Rice

---

I'm a lazy cook so when i had a craving for my grandmother's yellow rice, i figured out a recipe that would taste the same and be simple. Amounts and ingredients can be changed according to your tastes and it keeps well too! this is a kind of spanish rice that my domincan grandmother makes, using tumeric instead of saffron to give the rice its color, with peas, shallot/onion, and garlic.

Steps

---

Heat oil in a medium saucepan on medium-high heat.

---

Add the shallots and garlic and cook until they start to brown , around 2-3 minutes.

---

Add rice , broth , tumeric , and salt.

---

Add frozen peas.

---

I usually add enough to cover the surface of the broth.

---

Bring to a boil.

---

This may take a few minutes.

---

Reduce heat to medium-low , cover , and simmer until tender and liquid is absorbed , this takes anywhere from 15 to 20 minutes depending on tastes and your stove !.

---

Sprinkle with fresh cilantro for a little extra flavor.
