Rice Dishes Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Rice

   Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium pot, combine the rinsed rice and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.

2. 2

   Sauté the Vegetables

   In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sliced shallots, and sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Then, add the julienned carrots and sliced bell pepper, and continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes.

3. 3

   Combine and Season

   Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork and add it to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Pour in the soy sauce, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir well to combine all ingredients and heat through for 2-3 minutes.

4. 4

   Garnish and Serve

   Remove from heat and stir in the chopped green onions and cilantro. Serve warm as a side dish or main course.
