Ingredients
- 2/3 cup rice
- ½ cup peanut oil
- 1 large onion, minced
- 2 large tomatoes, peeled, seeded, and chopped
- 1 pound oysters or 3 (10-ounce) containers with juice
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- juice of 2 lemons (6 tablespoons)

Directions
Soak rice in 1 cup of warm water for 20 minutes. Remove, dry in a cloth and place in a processor to break up grains (about 10 seconds).
Heat oil in a large pot and add onion, tomatoes, and rice. Mix well and shak for about 3 minutes. Strain liquid from oysters and add enough water to make 2 quarts. Add water to onion mixture and simmer 2 minutes. Add oysters and simmer until oysters are cooked. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, lemon juice, and cayenne pepper; stir and serve hot
