Ingredients
- 1 cup basmati rice
- 2 cups vegetable broth or water
- 1 tablespoon turmeric powder
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 zucchini, sliced
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Rice: Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rice, vegetable broth, turmeric powder, and grated ginger in a pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the rice is fluffy and all the liquid is absorbed.
- Roast the Vegetables: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). On a baking sheet, toss the diced red bell pepper, sliced zucchini, and broccoli florets with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread the vegetables in a single layer and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly browned.
- Combine and Serve: Once the rice and vegetables are cooked, fluff the rice with a fork and mix in the roasted vegetables. Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired and serve warm.
