Ingredients
- 2 cups long-grain brown rice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 yellow onion finely chopped
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- ¼ cup tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 roma tomatoes seeded and finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
- ¼ cup cilantro leaves for garnish
Instructions
- Place the rice in a mesh sieve and rinse with cold water while agitating the rice with your hands to release as much starch as possible, until the water runs clear. Set aside.
- Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 2-3 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, one minute more. Stir in rinsed rice, tomato paste, cumin, cinnamon, chopped tomatoes, and salt, and cook until well combined, about 2 more minutes.
- Add vegetable stock and bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 45 minutes, or until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender.
- Remove from heat and allow the rice to steam covered for 5 more minutes. Uncover and fluff with a fork. Sprinkle with fresh cilantro and serve.

Notes
