  6. Increase the heat to high and bring the mixture to a boil.

Notes

For a vegetarian version, substitute vegetable broth cube with a vegetable-based bouillon cube.
Adjust the spice level to your preference by adding more or less cayenne pepper.
To prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot, make sure to stir it occasionally and add more water if necessary.
