2 cups rice
3-4 cups water

1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 sliced red bell pepper

Wash your rice twice and drain it. Stove on medium-high heat, add oil and stir fry the rice for like a minute until golden. Add water, pigen peas, peppers, sofrito/sazon, and salt. Stir everything. Once it starts boiling, reduce heat to low and cover. It should take about 20 minutes for the rice to steam. Don't be afraid to stir here and there and check on it frequently after the first 10-15 minutes.
Rice and pigeon peas go best with pork. Try with a nice pork loin or pork chops.
