Ingredients

  • 1 cup White rice
  • 2 cups Water
  • 2 cups Broccoli florets
  • 2 medium Carrots
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 2 Garlic cloves
  • 0.5 teaspoons Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Soy sauce (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the white rice under running water until the water runs clear. Set aside.

Step 2

In a medium pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the rice, cover, and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.

Step 3

While the rice cooks, prepare the vegetables. Wash the broccoli florets and peel the carrots. Slice the carrots into thin rounds.

Step 4

Mince the garlic cloves and set aside.

Step 5

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

Step 6

Add the sliced carrots to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 7

Add the broccoli florets to the skillet. Stir well and cook for another 5-6 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.

Step 8

Season the vegetables with salt and black pepper. Stir in soy sauce if desired for added flavor.

Step 9

Fluff the cooked rice with a fork and divide it onto serving plates.

Step 10

Top the rice with the sautéed broccoli and carrots. Serve warm and enjoy!
