Ingredients:
  • 18.20 gm olive oil
  • 1 brown onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 300.00 gm Basmati rice, rinsed
  • 637.50 gm vegetable liquid stock
  • 1 carrot, peeled, diced
  • 125g green beans, trimmed, cut into 3cm pieces
  • 250.00 ml fresh peas or frozen peas (see Note)
  • 2 tomatoes, chopped
  • 62.50 ml chopped fresh dill
Instructions:
  • In a heavy-based saucepan over medium heat, sauté onion and garlic in oil for 5 minutes until soft, stirring occasionally.
  • Stir in the rice and cook for 5 minutes until it's nicely coated in the flavorful oil and onion mixture.
  • Pour in flavorful stock, then bring to a vigorous boil. Lower the heat, cover the pot, and let it simmer gently for 8 minutes.
  • Lay carrot, beans, and peas on rice without mixing. Cover and cook for an additional 8 minutes. Remove from heat and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes to let the rice soak up the liquid.
  • Gently fold in tomatoes, dill, and a touch of pepper into the rice mixture using a fork. Portion into bowls and enjoy.
