Ingredients:
Round rice - 1 cup
Onions - 50 g
Carrots - 1 pc.
Eggplant - 1 pc.
Zucchini - 150 g
Hot pepper - to taste
Tomatoes - 80 g
Salt to taste
Ch.m. pepper - taste
Vegetable oil - 3 tbsp.
Parsley - 4 sprigs
Preparation:
1. Prepare all the necessary foods from the list. Do not fill the glass completely with rice (see. Photo). Wash the vegetables, peel the onions, and peel the carrots.
2. Rinse the rice several times, the water must be absolutely clean. Pour cold water 2 centimeters above the cereal, put on high heat. Once it boils, turn on the quietest heat, cover tightly and cook for 15 minutes. After a while, turn off the stove, put paper towels between the cauldron and the lid, and leave for another 10 minutes. Round rice cooked in this way will be crumbly.
3. While the rice is cooking, heat the oil in a skillet. Cut the onions into small cubes and fry for 2-3 minutes, until soft.
4. Cut the carrots into thin slices or grate on a coarse grater, add to the onion, turn the heat down under the pan and cook the vegetables for 2-3 minutes.
5. Then we cut the eggplant into small pieces, put it with vegetables, cook over low heat for 1-2 minutes.
6. Cut the zucchini into the same slices as the eggplant, fry with the rest of the vegetables for 2-3 minutes. The blue one will immediately absorb all the oil, so pour in a little water and simmer all the ingredients for 5 minutes, until the eggplant is soft.
7. During this time, the rice should have been cooked. Loosen it with a fork, put in a pan, stir.
8. If the tomato is ordinary - grate the pulp on a coarse grater, discard the peel, add to the pan. Cook rice with vegetables and tomato for 3 minutes, no longer. I have cherry, I just cut them into quarters. Add hot pepper at this stage.
9. Season the finished dish with salt and pepper to taste, add chopped fresh herbs, mix, heat for another minute.
10. Serve rice with vegetables immediately after cooking. You can directly in the pan in which it was cooked, or put it in portions.
