Steps:
- Soak the rice in water with a pinch of salt for about 20-30 minutes, then rinse thoroughly until water runs clear. Set rinsed rice aside.
- Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium high heat. Once hot, add the vermicelli and toast for 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Watch carefully as vermicelli can burn easily.
- Once vermicelli has toasted, add the rinsed rice, stir to combine the rice and vermicelli together and toast until the rice turns opaque, a couple minutes, stirring throughout.
- Add the water to the top of the rice. It should just cover the rice by about 1/2 inch or so, if you need to you can add another splash of water. Add the salt, and stir again.
- Bring the rice water mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer covered for 15-20 minutes or until all the water is absorbed.
- Once rice has cooked through and water is absorbed, remove from the heat but leave covered for another 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, remove the lid, and fluff the rice with a fork and serve.

EGYPTIAN RICE
When my daughter was younger we used to do a little thing called dinner around the world. I found this recipe online while we were researching Egypt (hence the name). We've been making this now for a few years and everytime we make it for a gathering I end up having to pass out the recipe. Kids really love this dish too.
