- Use medium-grain rice, do not use instant rice or basmati rice.
- Add some green peas and fresh cilantro.
- If you don't have vino seco (dry white wine) feel free to use regular white wine or vinegar instead. If using white vinegar, add a splash.
- Use salami instead of Vienna sausage if you prefer.
- To make it spicy, add some cayenne pepper or chili powder to the sofrito.
