I am not an experience cook by any stretch of the imagination. Just a beginner. That said: I used a 8 oz can of tomato paste, I think it would have been better with a larger can, 15 to 18 oz. I used 1 cup of uncooked rice, based on the 1 to 2 ratio for rice to water. The recipe came out very tasty, in spite of my shorting the tomato sauce.
