Method

Cooking the Rice

  1. 1

    Rinse the Rice

    Begin by rinsing 2 cups of rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch and prevents the rice from becoming sticky.

  2. 2

    Cook the Rice

    In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice and 4 cups of water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 18-20 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.

  3. 3

    Fluff the Rice

    Once cooked, remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit, covered, for another 5 minutes. Then, fluff the rice with a fork to separate the grains.

Preparing the Vegetables

  1. 4

    Chop the Vegetables

    While the rice is cooking, chop 1 cup each of carrot, green peas, and bell pepper into small, bite-sized pieces.

  2. 5

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped vegetables and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender.

Combining Ingredients

  1. 6

    Mix Everything Together

    Once the vegetables are cooked, add the fluffed rice to the skillet. Stir in 1 teaspoon of salt, 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper, and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce. Mix well to combine all ingredients.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Remove from heat and serve hot. Top with chopped green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
