Instructions

Put a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet and heat. Then slice up a garlic clove and add. When the garlic starts to color, add the rice. Stir for a couple of minutes and then add the hot water and a teaspoon of salt. Heat over high heat for 7 minutes and then lower the heat and simmer for another 8 minutes. If the rice has absorbed all the water in this time but is still hard, add a little more water. Let stand, covered with a cloth.

Prepare the vegetables while the rice is cooking. Wash and peel the carrot. Cut the carrot, zucchini, and onion into small pieces.

Put a little oil into a skillet and fry the vegetables, stirring often. Season with a little salt and cook until a little soft. Remove from the heat.

Once the rice is ready, add to the vegetables and mix in well. Your vegetable rice is now ready. Enjoy!
