Red Chile Rice
by:
Baste now and then. Vegetables have a lot of water that evaporates quickly on a hot grill. Thats good news for flavor because as the water evaporates the real vegetable flavors get more intense. But some vegetables, especially mushrooms, are prone to shrinking and drying out when they lose water, so if they start to wrinkle, brush them with a little oil.

preparation
1. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, warm the oil. Add the onion and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to avoid browning. Add the chile powder. Cook for about 1 minute, stirring occasionally. Add the rice. Stir to evenly coat the grains of rice with oil. Add the remaining ingredients, including 3 cups of cold water. Stir. Bring the mixture to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan with a tight-fitting lid, and cook until the rice is tender and has absorbed all the water, 18 to 20 minutes. Remove the saucepan from the heat and leave it alone for 5 minutes. Remove the lid and fluff the rice with a fork. Serve warm.
