Description
This one-pot vegetable rice is a kids' absolute favorite dish. A simple and easy recipe that can be served on its own or with the main course. The best part is that it takes only 15 minutes to cook, uses only one pot, and is a great healthy rice dish for the family.

Instructions
- If using basmati or Asian rice, it's best to wash and soak for 30 mins before cooking. Drain and set aside.1 cup Rice
- In a skillet, saute onions, garlic, and ginger in oil for about 2 minutes until translucent. Add cinnamon, bay leaves, carrots, peas, and green beans - saute a minute more. Next, add the rice and cook on medium heat for two minutes so the rice is well coated with the oil.½ cup Onion, 1 tsp Garlic, 1 tsp Ginger, 2 tbsp Cooking oil, ½ cup Carrots, ½ cup Peas, ½ cup Green beans, 1 Cinnamon stick, 2 Bay leaves
- Add stock and fresh herbs, and stir well. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to a low simmer and cover with a lid.1½ cups Vegetable stock, ½ cup Fresh herbs chopped, 1 tsp Salt, 1 tsp Pepper
- Cook on low for 15 minutes undisturbed. After 15 minutes - switch the heat off and let the rice rest for 10 minutes.
- When ready to serve - fluff the rice with a fork. Garnish with more fresh herbs. I like to serve it on its own with raita (recipe below) or along with the main course.
