My dad is Mexican and his mother taught my mom to make many Mexican dishes. The one dish I never learned to make was Mexican rice. Mom passed away a long time ago. I just kept looking for the way I remembered her making it. When I came across your video, I knew this was it. Thanks so much!
I love how raw and real your videos are! You're not pretentious, and I feel like I'm in the kitchen with you! Everyone should know how to cook. Keep up the great work.
Your very experienced cook I can tell by your videos and are very natural I hope you make more videos I am a mom of 3 and feed my kids home cooked meals so your one of the best so far !!!thank you
I've been on a mission to perfect my Mexican Rice recipe and my cooking technique for the last few months. I've probably watched every video on RU-vid on the subject, no joke. Your recipe(s) and video are by far my favorite. You have a great personality and an ease about you, you seem like a natural teatcher. Thanks for sharing!
I'm making some tortillas right now (their resting) so I haven't seen you in a while and looked you up and you are the only one that uses 3 cups of water and THAT IS PROBABLY why I have had such dry and uncooked rice. THANK YOU SO MUCH tomorrow I'm making some good old Mexican rice with 3 cups of water. Hey girl, spend more time in the kitchen WITH THE CAMRA ROLLING. See you soon I hope.
Your rice looks great and you've done a great job with the video. My point is not to be negative. I just ask you please not to pour grease down the sink. It will eventually clog your pipes and is very bad for the city system as well as it also clogs the outside pipes. I keep a coffee can and pour off all oil into the can then throw it away when full. Since so much coffee comes in bags now it's harder to get coffee cans so I recently saved & used glass jars - any glass jar with a lid. Thanks for the video.
Betty A thank you....and yes i agree with you it was an honeat mistake ....my son was rushing me and would only film 1 take so i was trying not to forget recipe!
Good that you pointed out not pouring grease down sinks. I have known many people who believe that as long as they run hot water down with it, it can do no harm.
Cooking is a life skill that everyone should know. Thank you for sharing both the traditional and the easy way for busy moms. You are a pleasure to learn from.
Looks yummy. And I appreciate your sense of humor while you cook. Been reading some of the comments. For the person who said oil down the drain clogs your drains. Not true. Oil doesn’t get hard. Fats and shortening do and will clog unless u flush with hot soapy water. Duh!
Thank You for your Flour tortilla video. I know make homemade flour tortillas for every meal. Just the other day it was cold and my kids came home from school and I asked them what they wanted for snack and they said your homemade flour tortillas with butter!! It made me feel so good. My mom passed away a few years ago and I just wish I had paid more attention. So now I'm making sure I pass these traditions down to my children. It's an art thats being lost. So Thank You. We would love to see more cooking videos. Especially Frijoles.
I never knew how to make rice. Until I saw your video. Thank you so much! The same with your homemade tortillas. Im forever grateful 🙏 to your videos. Thank you🥰
Im a man that cooks for the wife who hasn't retired yet and just love your videos.Just one problem, not enough of them yet. you're doing a great job. Many thanks
GREAT Video! I used it over this weekend and low and behold it tasted like my grandmother's Mexican rice and like my mother's too. I now know how to make it -- my family was surprised. Thanks again!

I like because its two ways both look great and easy from South Texas and looks how my Mexican friends mother looked kept it simple for guys like me Thanks
1 Tablespoon Caldo de Pollo, 1 Tablespoon Caldo de Tomate I was typing up your recipe but was not familiar with these spices. Found them on the internet and thought I would share with anyone else who was thinking about trying your recipe. Looks fabulous and hope to make it soon. Your son did a GREAT job in video tapping your cooking. Thanks.
I use your tortilla recipe all the time, I haven't bought store tortillas since? I am so glad you are doing Mexican rice! I am trying this recipe right away. If I can pull this off, and your instructions make it possible for me to think I can, no more store rice boxes or seasoning packets! Thanks for taking time out to make this video.
Yay! I loved your first video. You have the best personality. Just made my day seeing you are back. I listen to PitBull and jam to Latin music while I cook. It makes me feel like a superstar. - Texas.
I love your energy!! And I love how you explain the recipe you did a wonderful job!! I cook all the time and I enjoy it. Thank you for helping me give my family a wonderful addition to our meals.

I’m sooooo happy I found you’re recipe. My sons LOVE Mexican rice and I’ve tried so many recipes and failed miserably... they hated it!!! But this they enjoy!! Thanks keep it coming 😊
Your cooking videos are the greatest Christine. Now I have to go make this today. I guess I have to try to think of something to serve with it maybe pollo.
Thank you so much for your wonderful video! I love that you showed both ways I’ve been looking for a good Mexican rice video and yours is easy to follow. Thank you again. 🤗
After watching a bunch of videos and making around 10 different recipes in the last four days I'm finally done. The rice is outstanding. But I did make a change. I know usually it's 1 cup of rice and 2 cups of water so I used 2 cups of water instead and it was perfect. Light and fluffy. Thank you for the recipe.
Rice turned out phenomenal! You are the best. Please keep sharing some more videos of your delish food. And to those holier than thou. People complaining about oil, and water. Geezh cut her some slack. She already apologized!
