Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 cups brown basmati rice (or other long grain brown rice)
4 garlic cloves, crushed through a press
3 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup broccoli floret
1 cup cut green beans
1 cup diced yellow squash
1/2 cup coarsely shredded carrot
1/3 cup diced red bell pepper
1 tablespoon hulled sesame seeds, toasted in a dry skillet
1 teaspoon dark sesame oil

Steps:

  • Combine the onion and oil in a large shallow saucepan (with a tight fitting lid).
  • Cook over low heat, stirring frequently, for 10 minutes or until onion is golden.
  • Stir in the rice and cook 1 minute.
  • Add in the garlic; cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
  • Add the water; bring to a boil; add in the salt, stir thoroughly, cover and cook 35-40 minutes or until almost all the liquid is absorbed (do not stir).
  • Uncover the pot and while it is still on the heat, sprinkle the broccoli, green beans, squash, carrot, and red bell pepper evenly over the surface of the rice.
  • Cover and cook for 6-8 minutes or until the vegetables are crisp-tender and the rice is cooked.
  • Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and drizzle with the sesame oil.
  • Spoon into a serving dish and serve immediately.
