How to make
Wash the rice well to remove the starch.
Cut the pork belly into bite-sized pieces and fry them, until they aquire a golden color in a deep frying pan with oil heated over high heat.
Once they are ready, reduce the heat and add the chopped leeks to fry with a pinch of salt. After a while, add cumin and as much black pepper as you like. The combination of leeks, meat, black pepper and cumin is my favorite during the winter season.
After the leeks soften and begin to brown a little, immediately pour the washed rice and fry, by stirring often.
Add the savory herb and a little more salt.
Pour water in the ratio indicated on the package.
Add the vegetable seasoning and cook the rice with pork, until the liquid is absorbed.
You don't have to stir.
Leave the finished rice for 5-10 minutes and then serve it sprinkled with freshly chopped parsley.
This traditional winter dish - rice with leeks and pork belly is easy, quick an delicious.
