Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 1 1/2 cups Basmati rice (or other long-grain rice)
- 1 zucchini, grated
- 2 medium carrots, grated
- 3 Tbsp olive oil (or butter/ghee)
- 3 1/4 cups vegetable broth (or chicken, if not vegan)
- salt and pepper, to taste
- Optional: 1-2 Tbsp fresh herbs (like dill, cilantro, parsley, or basil)
Instruction
- Rinse the rice in a fine mesh sieve to wash away some of the starch.
- Add your oil/butter to a saucepan and melt over medium heat.
- Add zucchini, carrot, and rice and stir to coat.
- Add broth and a pinch of salt and pepper to the saucepan and cover.
- Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat to low for 15 minutes or until the water has all been absorbed and the rice is tender. Fluff rice with a fork and add additional salt and pepper, as desired, along with fresh herbs (if using).
