Heat the oil in a medium-size saucepan, over a medium heat. Add the rice and onion and stir until the grains are coated with oil and the onion is turning translucent. Do not allow the rice to brown. Stir in the salt and saffron, and slowly pour in the water. Cover tightly, and cook over low heat until all the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is tender, about 20 minutes. Set aside, covered, for 5 minutes.
Before serving, stir well to make sure the saffron is well mixed throughout the rice.
This recipe yields 6 to 8 servings.
