Rinse the 2 cups of long grain parboiled rice thoroughly in cold water until the water runs clear. Set aside.

Blend the 1 cup diced tomatoes, 1 red bell pepper, and half of the medium onion until smooth.

Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the remaining half of the onion (sliced) and sauté until translucent.

Add the blended tomato, bell pepper, and onion mixture to the pot. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reduces and the oil begins to separate.

Stir in 1 cup of tomato puree, 1 teaspoon of thyme, 1 teaspoon of curry powder, and 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes.

Pour in 2 cups of low-sodium chicken broth and add 1 teaspoon of salt. Mix well and bring to a gentle boil.

Add the rinsed rice to the pot. Stir to combine, ensuring the rice is evenly distributed in the sauce.

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid, and simmer for 25-30 minutes. Check occasionally and add a splash of water or broth if the rice looks too dry.
