Veggie Rice Pot Food

QUICK ONE POT VEGETABLE RICE

Steps:

• If using basmati or Asian rice it's best to wash and soak for 30 mins before cooking. Drain and set aside. Pro tip - soaking the rice makes for even cooking as well as makes it light and fluffy.
• In a skillet, saute' onions, garlic, and ginger in oil for about 2 minutes until translucent.Pro tip - Use a wide skillet for cooking rice to ensure even cooking.
• Add cinnamon, bay leaves, carrots, peas, and green beans - saute a minute more.Pro tip - we want the veggies to coat with the oil. If using frozen veggies do not cook for too long.
• Next, add the rice and cook on medium heat for two minutes so the rice is well coated with the oil.Pro tip- sauteing the rice will coat every grain with oil and lightly toast it. This makes very fluffy rice.
• Add stock, fresh herbs - and stir well. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to a low simmer and cover with a lid.
• Cook on low for 15 minutes undisturbed. After 15 minutes - switch the heat off and let the rice rest for 10 minutes.Pro tip - the rice will continue to cook in the residue heat making it just right.
• When ready to serve - fluff the rice with a fork. Garnish with more fresh herbs. I like to serve it on its own with raita (recipe below) or along with the main course.

VEGGIE RICE POT

Steps:

• Boil the kettle. Heat the oil in a large, deep frying pan, then add the peppers and mushrooms. Fry over a high heat for 3 mins or until starting to soften and turn golden. Turn down the heat, then stir in the rice, garlic and five-spice. Sizzle for 2 mins, then splash in the sherry, if using, and top up with 350ml hot water.
• Cover the pan and simmer for 15-20 mins until all of the liquid has gone and the rice is tender, stirring now and again. Add the peas for the final few mins.
• Heat another frying pan, add a drop of the sesame oil, then add the eggs. Swirl around the pan to make a thin omelette. Once set, turn out onto a board, roll up and shred thinly. Tip the egg and spring onions onto the rice, fluff up with a fork, season with soy sauce and sesame oil, then serve.

ONE POT VEGGIE RICE BOWL

Steps:

• Add the rice, garlic, and frozen vegetables to a small saucepot.
• Combine the water with 1 teaspoon soy sauce, then pour that into the pot. Stir to combine with the rice, vegetables, and garlic.
• Wash one large egg well, then place it in the center of the pot, on top of the rice.
• Place a lid on the pot, turn the heat on to high, and allow the water to come up to a boil. Once it reaches a full boil, turn the heat down to low, and allow the water to continue to simmer for 15 minutes without removing the lid or stirring.
• After 15 minutes of simmering, turn the heat off. Remove the egg from the pot and replace the lid right away. Allow the rice to rest with the heat turned off and the lid in place for another five minutes.
• After removing the egg from the pot, place the egg in a bowl of ice water or place it under cold running water for a few minutes to stop the cooking process.
• After letting the rice and veggies rest for five minutes, remove the lid and fluff with a fork. Season the rice and veggies with the sesame oil and another 1 teaspoon soy sauce, or to taste.
• Transfer the rice and vegetables to a bowl. Peel the egg and slice it in half or into quarters, then place it on top of the rice. Top the bowl with sliced green onion and a drizzle of sriracha.
