Instructions

1
Put a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet and heat. Then slice up a garlic clove and add. When the garlic starts to color, add the rice. Stir for a couple of minutes and then add the hot water and a teaspoon of salt. Heat over high heat for 7 minutes and then lower the heat and simmer for another 8 minutes. If the rice has absorbed all the water in this time but is still hard, add a little more water. Let stand, covered with a cloth.
2
Prepare the other ingredients while the rice is cooking. Wash and slice the mushrooms. If using canned, wash well under running water.
3
Take the shrimp out of the freezer to thaw. Peel if using fresh, removing all traces of shell.
4
Cut the onion into small pieces.
5
Put a little oil into a skillet and fry the onion for a few minutes, stirring often. Then add the mushrooms and leave to cook for 4–5 more minutes. Season with a little salt.
6
Finally, add the shrimp and cook for a couple of minutes together with the other ingredients.
7
Add the cooked rice to the skillet and stir well. Enjoy!

Tips & Tricks

If you want the rice to be velvety smooth, you can add a little cream. Add it to the skillet as the onion, mushrooms, and shrimp are cooking. Then add the rice.

If you have any chives, you can also add a little after serving.
