Wash the rice until the water runs clear and set aside to dry.

Boil enough water for two cups.

Chop the onions and garlic finely.

Place a pan over medium heat and add the olive oil.

Once olive oil is heated, add the chopped onions and garlic.

Sauté until fragrant, approximately 3 minutes.

Add the dry rice to the pan and stir for an additional 3-4 minutes, making sure that the rice does not stick to the bottom of the pan.

Add the two cups of boiling water to the rice and the salt.

Place a lid on the pan and cook on medium heat for 8 minutes.

Decrease the heat to low and cook for another 10-15 minutes, or until the water has all evaporated.

If the rice is not cooked yet, add a little bit more water!
