Cooking Instructions
1. Prepare the Saffron
In a small bowl, soak the saffron threads in 2 tablespoons of warm water. Set aside for 10 minutes to release the color and flavor.
2. Sauté the Vegetables
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté until the onion is translucent.
3. Add Carrots and Peppers
Stir in the diced carrots and bell pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4. Add Rice and Broth
Add the basmati rice to the pot and stir to coat with the oil and vegetables. Pour in the vegetable broth and the saffron mixture, bringing it to a boil.
5. Cook the Rice
Reduce heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the rice is tender and has absorbed the liquid.
6. Add Peas and Seasoning
Stir in the green peas, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Cook for an additional 5 minutes.
