Mexican Lime and Cilantro Rice

This mexican lime and cilantro rice is used as a filling in the burrito wraps or burrito bowls.
You can make it either with white rice or brown rice. I have used brown rice here.

• Water - 2 cups
• Oil - 2 tbsp
• Onion - 1 small
• Garlic - 1 clove
• Cilantro - 1 handful
• Lime juice - of 1 Lime
• Salt - to taste

Directions: 

• Soak rice in water for 10 minutes, drain and keep aside.
• Heat the oil in a deep pan or pot. 
• Add chopped onions and saute till translucent.
• Add chopped garlic and saute for another minute.
• Add rice and fry for 2-3 minutes.
• Add water and bring it to boil. Then simmer it and let it cook covered till done. Note that brown rice takes longer to cook when compared to white rice.
