Veggie Rice Stir-fry

Method

1. 1

   Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear, then cook it according to package instructions. Set aside once done.

2. 2

   While the rice is cooking, wash and chop the broccoli into small florets, slice the carrot thinly, and dice the red bell pepper.

3. 3

   In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

4. 4

   Add the chopped broccoli, carrot, and red bell pepper to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

5. 5

   Once the vegetables are cooked, add the cooked rice to the skillet, followed by the soy sauce. Stir well to combine all ingredients.

6. 6

   Season with salt and black pepper to taste, and stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through.

7. 7

   Remove from heat and serve immediately, garnished with sesame seeds or spring onions if desired.
