Cook the Rice
Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes.

Add the diced carrots and bell pepper, cooking for 3-4 minutes until they start to soften. Then add the frozen peas and corn, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes.
