Step by step cooking lean rice with vegetables in a pan
1. Before preparing lean rice with vegetables, prepare vegetable products. We wash and clean them. It is advisable to grind all the ingredients equally - in shape and size, then the finished dish will look more attractive. Can be cut into strips, cubes - at the discretion of the cook. But the pieces should not be very thin, so that during heat treatment they do not turn into a homogeneous paste.
2. Pass the prepared vegetables in a preheated frying pan with butter so that they retain their shape. Stir frequently. The pieces should become softer, but there is no point in bringing them to full readiness at this stage. In general, this process should take no more than 10 minutes.
3. Sort the rice, rinse and add to the pan.
4. Fill the contents with water. Cover with a lid. Cooking time over medium heat - 20 minutes. It is advisable not to interfere with the heat treatment process - do not open the lid and do not stir. During a low boil, the ingredients will partially mix, the water will evaporate, and the rice will turn out to be crumbly.
5. This dish can also be cooked in a multicooker. To do this, you need to choose the "Pilaf" program. The cooking time is determined automatically. The aroma is well preserved under the tightly closed lid, and the grains of rice never stick together.
6. Very satisfying and delicious lean rice with vegetables in a pan is ready! We dilute the bright colors of carrots, bell peppers with chopped herbs. Sprinkle with soy sauce if desired.
