1/2 medium white onion, peeled and chopped fine

2 cups hot chicken stock or vegetable stock

1 cup fresh corn kernels

Sea salt to taste



Preparation:

Sauté the dried rice kernels in hot oil using a large, heavy pot.

Add the onion and the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until the rice is golden brown.

Add the chopped cuitlacoche and cook until the juices run out and evaporate.

Stir in the hot broth and the corn, plus the salt and pepper to taste. Lower the heat and cook, covered, until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender.
