Make It
Step 1
Rinse rice thoroughly under cold water and drain in a fine mesh strainer.
Step 2
In a large saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add 1 cup onion, 3 garlic cloves, red bell pepper, bay leaf, 1 ½ teaspoons salt, ¼ teaspoon pepper and 1 MAGGI® Chicken Bouillon cube and sauté for 3 minutes, or until onions turn translucent.
Step 3
Add the rice and sauté until lightly toasted and golden brown, about 2 minutes.
Step 4
Add water and mix well; bring to boil. Once it boils, cover saucepan, reduce heat to low and cook on low until rice is fully cooked, about 17 minutes.

While the rice cooks: In a separate skillet over medium heat, add remaining 2 tablespoons of oil and fry the diced plantain until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 6
Uncover the saucepan and add corn, peas, green onion and half cup of Nestlé® Media Crema®. With a fork, mix everything carefully, cover again and cook for 3 more minutes. Remove rice from heat.
