Vegetable Rice
Ingredients:
• Chopped cabbage – 3 cup
• Carrot, grated – 1 large
• Chopped celery – 1 stick
• Basmati rice – 1 cup
• Water – 2 cup
• Ghee – 4 heaping tsp
• Mustard seeds – 1 tsp
• Hing – 1/4 tsp
• Ground black pepper – 1/2 tsp
• Chopped chili 1/2 or Cayenne (or as desired) – 1/4 tsp
• Salt – 1 1/2 tsp
• Gluten pieces, steamed
Preparation:
1. Heat the ghee to hot. Add the mustard seeds. They should immediately pop. When nearly done popping, add the hing, then the pepper and cayenne and the vegetables immediately afterwards.
2. Sautee the vegetables in the ghee until they begin to shrink. Then add the rice and water and salt.
3. Bring to a high boil. Cover and simmer on low for 20 minutes. If cooking in a large pot, extra water and time may be needed to get the rice thoroughly cooked.
