Method
Preparing the Rice
- 1
Rinse the Rice
Begin by rinsing the long-grain rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This helps remove excess starch.
- 2
Cook the Rice
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, water, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the rice is cooked and water is absorbed.
Steaming the Vegetables
- 3
Prepare the Steamer
Fill a pot with about 1-2 inches of water and bring to a simmer. Place a steamer basket over the pot, making sure it doesn't touch the water.
- 4
Steam the Vegetables
Add the broccoli, celery, green peppers, mushrooms, black olives, onion, and tomato to the steamer basket. Cover and steam for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender but still vibrant in color.
- 5
Add the Green Chile
After steaming, mix in the vegetarian green chile, stirring gently to combine with the vegetables. Allow to heat through for an additional 2-3 minutes.
