Authentic Spanish Rice image

My friend Alice is Mexican and of course makes spanish rice, lol. She gave me her recipe, which is basically by eyeball. I know it by heart and it is the best spanish rice! For a quick change, I sometimes use curry instead of cumin..great taste! You can also add some frozen carrots and peas..
