Heat the reserved tuna oil in a deep pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the diced onion, crushed garlic, and quartered tomato. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the onions are translucent and the tomato begins to break down.

Rinse the rice thoroughly. Add the rinsed rice to the boiling liquid, stir well, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes without uncovering or stirring.
💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Resist the urge to stir the rice while it cooks to prevent it from becoming mushy. - 7
After 20-25 minutes, taste the rice. If it's cooked to your liking, turn off the heat, re-cover the pot, and let it rest for 5-10 minutes. If it's still too firm, continue cooking for another 5-10 minutes, then rest.
