Creative-Sunday/ vegetable white rice

Hello everyone welcome to HL Creative-Sunday from your girl Princess-Dara. Happy New Week to you all, I am here again to give you another sweet delicacy, another way you can have your white rice without breaking the bank. To me, it is not until you break the bank that you will be able to eat all the delicious meals you crave, we can cook it according to how much we have.

I am the type that gets tired of food easily when I keep eating it too much, so instead of having the same white rice I had yesterday, I decided to spice it up with different vegetables.
So I call it Vegetable white rice. Funny name I know but trust me it was indeed a vegetable white rice because the vegetables in it make the taste different from the usual white rice we boiled.

Ingredients are:

Rice
Onions
Pepper
Fish
Seasoning
Salt
Carrots
Green beans
Onion leaf
Curry and thyme
Groundnut oil

Preparation

I rinse all the vegetables and then slice them into pieces but in a bigger way because I wanted it to be obvious inside the rice. I cut the fish and then wash it as well.

I put a pot of water on the burner then washed my rice twice before pouring it inside, I allowed it to be parboiled for some minutes before I removed the water.

The reason was that I am used to parboiling rice because I wanted the starch out.

I put the pot back on the burner, poured another fresh water and added my vegetables into it. I poured the rice into the vegetables and added salt then let it boil well.

While the rice was boiling, I put another small pot on another burner then added groundnut oil into it allowing it to get hot before pouring onions into it.

I added my blended pepper into it as well and let it fry for some seconds, I added the seasoning and salt as well.

Some seconds later I added my curry and thyme to give it a very delicious taste and a beautiful aroma. Lastly, I added my fish which I have already fried.

While the stew was frying, my vegetable rice was already done so I sieved the rice out from the water as you can see in the basket.

Before the water drained finish my stew was ready so I just served it immediately.

Now my vegetable white rice is ready.
Thanks for stopping by.
