Method

Cooking the Rice

  1. 1

    Prepare the Rice

    In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of rice, 2 cups of vegetable broth, 1 tsp of turmeric powder, and 0.5 tsp of salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Simmer

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.

Preparing Vegetables

  1. 3

    Chop the Vegetables

    While the rice is cooking, chop the yellow bell pepper, carrot, and zucchini into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tbs of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped vegetables and 1 cup of corn kernels. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until they are tender.

Final Assembly

  1. 5

    Combine

    Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork and add it to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables.

  2. 6

    Season

    Add 0.5 tsp of black pepper, 1 tsp of garlic powder, and 2 tbs of fresh parsley to the mixture. Stir well to combine.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve warm as a delightful side dish or a light main course.
