In this video, Nanaaba shares a quick scrumptious, versatile, vegetable rich rice recipe, that can be used as a part of a main dish, or as the main side dish! Enjoy my simple everyday recipes with your family.
Ingredients and a preparation:
2 cups of jasmine rice (you may substitute with any long grain rice by the way)
1 cup vegetable broth
2 tablespoons of salted butter for cooking the rice, and 1 tablespoon for when the mixed veggies are added (no hard and fast rule about the amount of butter to use, if you catch my drift, lol)
2 cups of water for steaming the rice
1 tsp of salt (adjust amount to taste of course)
1/2 tsp vegetable bouillon
1 bay leaf
1 tbsp onion paste, and 1 tsp garlic paste or 2 cloves of garlic
For the preparation, have your pan on medium heat, and melt your butter, then add your onion and garlic paste, and cook till fragrant (that should take about 45 secs) add the salt, bouillon, bay leaf, and washed rice (yes people, you must wash your rice!!!!!) and toast till rice grains are dry, and toastyyyyy. then add your liquids - case in point, the broth, and water, stir, and cover with lid, and cook for 10 further minutes, or until the liquid is visibly evaporated. Remove lid, and stir to flush rice grains up, then cover with a parchment paper, and lid, then turn heat down to very very very low setting, and cook undisturbed for next 30 minutes. Remove lid, and add mixed veggies, and remaining butter on vegies, cover with lid for about 2 minutes to tenderize vegies. Finally, stir, and serve alongside whatever you love to have rice with.
