Ingredients

  • 2 cups vegetable stock
  • 1 cup rice - of your choice, you can even use a blend
  • 1 cup carrots - sliced thick
  • ½ cup onion - diced
  • ½ cup green bell pepper - finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic - finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger - very finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons tamari sauce
  • ¼ cup scallions - chopped, for garnish
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  • In a medium saucepan, bring the vegetable stock to a boil.
  • Stir in the rice, cover and reduce heat. Simmer for 20 minutes. This can also be done in a Rice Cooker by adding the stock, salt and rice all at once and then push the start switch. It will finish when the chime dings.
  • In a saucepan cover the carrots with water and bring to a boil.  Cook on at medium high simmer for 15 minutes.  Drain and set aside.
  • In the meantime, heat oil in a skillet and saute the onion and bell peppers for 10 minutes.
  • Add garlic, ginger and carrots.  Saute 2 more minutes. Set aside.
  • When the rice is finished add it to the skillet along with the carrot mixture and tamari.
  • Heat through and and add salt and pepper.  Serve garnished with scallions.
