Comment préparer Iraqi Pink Rice

Rinse 1 cup of basmati rice thoroughly under cold water 3 times, until the water runs clear.
In a medium saucepan, sauté 1 medium onion, finely chopped, in 2 tablespoons of olive oil or vegetable oil over medium heat for about 5 minutes, until lightly browned.
Add 1 cup of rinsed basmati rice to the pot and stir to coat with the oil and onion.
In a small bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups of water, 2 tablespoons of ketchup, ½ teaspoon of salt, and ¼ teaspoon of black pepper.
Pour the water mixture over the rice and onion, ensuring all the rice is submerged. For a mushier consistency (as suggested by ummbinat), add up to ¼ cup more water.
Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.
Once boiling, immediately reduce the heat to low, cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid, and simmer for 20 minutes, without lifting the lid.
After 20 minutes, turn off the heat and let the rice steam, covered, for another 10 minutes before fluffing with a fork and serving.
