Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup rice (white or brown) Use your preference
  • 4 cups vegetable broth (or chicken broth)
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2-3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 medium carrots, sliced
  • 1 cup peas (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • to taste Salt and pepper
  • optional Fresh herbs like parsley or thyme for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until it becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
  3. Toss in the sliced carrots and continue to sauté for 5-6 minutes, allowing them to soften slightly.
  4. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring it to a gentle boil. Season with salt and pepper according to your taste.
  5. Once the broth is boiling, add the rice and peas. Give everything a good stir to combine, then reduce the heat to low.
  6. Cover the pot with a lid and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid.
  7. Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork and garnish with freshly chopped herbs if using. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat on stovetop with a splash of broth or microwave with occasional stirring.
