What you need: This amount serves my family of 2 adults, 2 teens, 1 toddler and 1 six year old... AND THEN SOME
Caldero (this rice tastes best when cooked in a caldero); you can order from amazon
1/3 cup of sofrito (How to make basic sofrito is in my first Blog for June 2014)
4 cans of Vienna Sausages
2-3 links of sweet sausages (optional)
1/2 cup of Canola or Vegtable oil
1/2 teaspoon of vinegar
2 packs of sazon with Achote and culantro (found at any super market in the goya section)
5 1/2 cups of rice
6 cups of water
Remove your salchichas from the can and rinse
Chop them up in about 1/2 inch sizes
Cut up your sausage
Heat up your caldero
Add the 1/2 cup of oil to the pot
Cook your sausage on Medium high
Add your vienna sausages/salchichas to the same pot right on top of the sweet sausage
Add your sazon/seasoning
Mix everything up
While that is cooking; wash your rice and add to caldero (pot) once all cleaned up
Since we are cooking 5 1/2 cups of rice, add 6 cups of water to the pot; cook on high
The rice will start to dry
Once you see that the water has evaporated; cook on low and cover up for 1/2 hour
After a 1/2 hour, turn your rice over (mix up) so that the rest of it can cook
Serve; ready to eat
This dish is excellent with a scoop of bean stew right on top
