Method

Prepare Rice

  1. 1

    Cook the Rice

    Rinse the short-grain rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rinsed rice and 2.5 cups of water in a rice cooker or pot. Cook according to the rice cooker instructions or bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes until the rice is tender and water is absorbed.

Prepare Vegetables

    Sauté Carrots

    Julienne the carrot and sauté in a non-stick pan over medium heat with a little oil for about 2-3 minutes until slightly softened. Remove and set aside.

  2. 3

    Sauté Spinach

    Blanch the spinach in boiling water for about 30 seconds, then drain and squeeze out excess water. Sauté in a pan with a sprinkle of salt for about 1 minute. Remove and set aside.

  3. 4

    Sauté Zucchini

    Julienne the zucchini and sauté in the same pan over medium heat for about 2-3 minutes until tender. Remove and set aside.

    Sauté Mushrooms

    Slice the mushrooms and sauté in the pan with a bit of oil until they are tender, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and set aside.

    Sauté Bean Sprouts

Prepare Meat (optional)
