1/2 onion, diced
2 tablespoon lard or vegetable oil
1/2 cup tomato sauce such as POMI or canned
1 3/4 cups chicken broth
1 cup raw rice
salt to taste
First melt the lard in a large saucepan.  To this add the onions and saute 
a bit.  Then add the rice and saute until lightly brown.  Then add the 
tomato sauce and stir around a bit.  Then add the chicken broth and 
season to taste.  Bring to a boil, stir well, cover and simmer very gently 
for about 15 minutes.  Check to make sure all liquid has evaporated, 
if not, simmer a bit more until the rice is dry .Sometimes I add some 
frozen peas or green beans in with the broth, this adds color and it tastes 
really good...
