subheading: A NOTE ON INGREDIENTS AND EQUIPMENT:

Feel free to use fresh tomatoes here—use three quarters beefsteak tomatoes (avoid plum tomatoes). If you are unable to find lemon omani, you can use ½ fresh lime. It won’t be a perfect substitute for dried lime, but you’ll get some sour notes from the juice as well as a more intense flavor from the zest and pith. Use a large wide pot: Changing the pot size may affect the cooking time of the rice. Feel free to use fresh tomatoes here-use three quarters beefsteak tomatoes (avoid plum tomatoes).
