Toasted Vermicelli Rice with Cherry Tomato

Short strands of vermicelli browned in butter until nutty and golden, then simmered with long-grain rice into a fluffy, speckled pilaf. This everyday Lebanese side is endlessly versatile, perfect next to sizzling beef and peppers, grilled kebabs or a simple vegetable stew.
