Food of the World - Easy Spanish Tapas

Hello. C J here. I've been doing some serious food research today. I've been reading recipies for Spanish rice dishes and entrees for about four hours now. I have tried a few things and today I think I hit gold. Here is my recipe for Spanish rice followed by my first ever recipe for a Spanish tapas. Both of these have been altered a bit by me to make them easier and cheaper. I hope the tapas bar in town doesn't mind.

Tomato Rice

Ingredients 

Two Cups Rice

One Cup Diced Tomatoes or Salsa

Four Cups Water

Three Tablespoons Oregano

One Half Teaspoon Salt

For the Tomato Rice

Combine all the ingredients in a large soup pot and bring to a boil over medium high heat.

Reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover with a lid and let simmer for 20 minutes.

Serve with any Mexican or Spanish dish or combine with meat for an easy paella. 

Spicy Sausage Rounds

Ingredients 

Two Sticks Worth Spicy Cured Sausage 

One Onion

One Tablespoon Garlic

One Fourth Cup Butter

For the Spicy Sausage Rounds

Quarter and then slice the onion into slivers. Slice the cured sausage into thin rounds.

Heat the butter in a chicken fryer.

Fry the onion and garlic for five minutes.

Add the meat and fry for five minutes.

Serve with rice or other appetizers.
