Steps

1. Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear, then set aside. 2. Heat olive oil in a pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. 3. Add the minced garlic and diced potato to the pot, cooking for another 5 minutes until the potatoes start to soften. 4. Stir in the rice, ensuring it is well coated with the oil and mixed with the onion and garlic. 5. Pour in the broth, season with salt and pepper, and bring to a boil. 6. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed. 7. Fluff the rice with a fork, garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm.
