Place the wooden skewers in a bowl of water to soak. This helps prevent them from burning during cooking. Set aside.
Step 2
Grease a pan with olive oil. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, until translucent.
Step 3
Break the raw spaghetti into fourths and add it to the pan. Add the chopped garlic and stir constantly until the spaghetti turns golden. Be careful not to let the pasta burn.
Step 4
Add the basmati rice and water. Stir until fully combined. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and let it simmer for 20 minutes. After that, turn off the heat and let the pan sit, still covered, for an additional 10 minutes. Once done, fluff the rice with a fork.
