Today i’ll share with you my vegan rice recipe it much a like of the vegan fried rice but i just mix the fried rice recipe with a diffrent spices rice recipe and it was delicious and full of flavour, and abslutly you going to love it.
I used in this recipe Basmati rice with long grains it is my favourite rice but you can make it with any other long grains rice. what kind of vegetable to use?
you can add any more vegetables as corn and cauliflower but i prefer to make it with vegetables in hands as carrot, potato and peas. I also add raisins into the rice, it gives the rice a very tasty flavour. In middle east most of our food is made with rice as kabbsa, maqluba, quadra, mujadara and more other. This recipe we call it Ozzy it is an odd name, right? LOL, but we add minced beef to vegetables, in my way i just make it light without any kind of meat.
