Add 3 tablespoons of tomato puree to the pot and let it brown well before adding other ingredients.

Add 4 cut tomatoes and stir until cooked.

Add the homemade spice mix and mix well.

Add 2 kg of soaked rice to the pot and mix thoroughly to soak the rice in the spices.

Cook over low heat until the sauce evaporates, ensuring not to stir too much to avoid crumbling the pilao.
