Mussels with Rice

Wash the mussels and the rice well. Put the finely chopped onions and the oil in the pot and sauté them over low heat. When they get browned, add the peppers and then the rice. Mix twice to three times without adding any water. Add the water later, preferably warm. You should be very careful with the amount of water because the success of the recipe depends on the proportion of water and rice. That is, we use one part of rice and two and a half parts of water.
