Instructions

Add a tablespoon of olive oil in a pot, and once it is hot, add the sliced clove of garlic. When it begins to lightly brown, add the rice. Stir it for a couple minutes before adding double the amount in water (about 1 cup) with a pinch of salt. Cook over high heat for 7 minutes and then turn down the heat to low and cook for 8 more minutes. If in this time, it absorbed all of the water and is still hard, add more water. Let it sit for a little bit.

Dice the onion and zucchini into small pieces. Next, peel and dice the carrot into small pieces too.

Drizzle some olive oil into a pan. Once it's hot add the diced vegetables. After 10-12 minutes, when the vegetables become tender, add the drained garbanzos. Cook together with the vegetables for several more minutes and then add the curry and salt.

Cook for 5 more minutes and then add the rice you had set aside. Mix and integrate well. Let the flavors mix and then serve on two plates.
