Method
Preparation
- 1
Rinse the Rice
Begin by rinsing the long-grain white rice under cold water in a fine-mesh strainer until the water runs clear. This helps to remove excess starch and prevents the rice from becoming gummy.

Sauté the Vegetables
In a medium saucepan, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion, bell peppers, and minced garlic. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened and fragrant.

Cook the Rice
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the saucepan and let it simmer for about 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed.
