This colorful side dish can be turned into a light main by topping it with fried eggs. To keep the flavor and color of cilantro fresh and bright, we blend the herb with a few aromatics until smooth, then mix the puree into the rice after the grains are cooked.
Tip
Don't fluff the rice immediately after cooking. Covering the pan with a towel and allowing the rice to rest for 5 minutes prevents the grains from turning mushy when the cilantro puree is folded in.
