Stewed Rice
This Stewed Rice is very unique in that it does not use any spices or sauces. Yet, it is amazingly flavourful and aromatic, all thanks to the magic of the vegetables used. Veggies like capsicum and spring onions have their own innate flavour, which get easily transferred to the food they are cooked in, and that property comes across very beautifully in this recipe. Other veggies like cauliflower, carrots and baby corn add colour and texture to this bowlful of rice, which is soothingly cooked in milk and vegetable sauce. You are sure to fall in love with this elegant dish, studded beautifully with colourful veggies!
