A delightful and quick recipe for creamy rice with peas, enhanced with garlic butter and a touch of creaminess.
Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
Ensure the butter doesn't brown for a smoother flavor.
Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir occasionally to prevent the onion from burning.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
Garlic cooks quickly, so keep an eye on it to avoid burning.
Add the rice and water to the saucepan, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover.
Let the rice absorb the water completely for the best texture.
Stir in the mayonnaise and peas, mixing until evenly combined.
Ensure the peas are heated through for the best flavor.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, then serve warm.
Taste the dish before serving to adjust the seasoning if needed.
