The water is brought to a boil with a little salt, the onion and the half carrot cut into small pieces. When it starts to boil, add the rice and put it on a medium high heat. We left it for about 15 minutes. Then we tried it for salt rectification and left it for about 5 more minutes. Meanwhile, we put an unpeeled garlic in a pan with oil to fry an unpeeled garlic that we have crushed it a little and when it starts to turn golden we add the egg and fry it. We take it out to the plate by draining it well.

Take out the rice, strain it with a sieve, removing the onion. We use a glass as a mold to make the rice tower on the plate and pour some fried tomato. It is served with a good slice of village bread. A word of advice, never boil rice with garlic because it will give it a horrible taste when used for white rice or tomato.
