  1. 1

    Heat up a pan over medium high heat, add olive oil and let it get hot.

    The time to cook it I will depend of how you like your gallo pinto, some people like it a little wet and some other like it a little toasted or dry.

    I prefer it not too dry, so I cook it for about 5 to 7 min.
