After we finished and she had totally cleaned her plate, she beamed up at me and said "That was delicious, Abuela! You are the best cook ever! I love what you cook!"

Suddenly my quick easy and far from perfect meal was one of the most delicious I'd ever had as well.

Welcome to the delicious thread!

What a wonderful story!

Thank you for sharing that with us. Rice is a challenge for me too when I am in an unfamiliar place. Recently I had rice bomb out on me when cooking at a friends home and told my teenager this, her reply was "why didn't you cook it in a rice cooker?" she was so confused. So I explained that not everyone has a rice cooker. She was even more confused by this. Oh technology.
