Method
Preparation
- 1
Rinse the Rice
Begin by rinsing the long-grain white rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This helps to remove excess starch and prevent the rice from becoming gummy.
- 2
Prepare the Vegetables
If using, dice the carrots and bell pepper, and set the frozen peas aside. This will ensure that all vegetables are ready to be added to the rice.
Cooking
- 3
Cook the Rice

Finish Cooking
Replace the lid and allow the rice and vegetables to cook for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the water is fully absorbed. Remove from heat.

Fluff and Serve
Using a fork, fluff the rice to separate the grains. Transfer the yellow rice to a large serving dish and serve warm.
