Sweet Potato Vegetable Rice

Overview

Vegetable rice is a special delicacy in my hometown of Shanghai. My mother often made it when I was a child. She cooks various vegetables with rice, and you can also add some bacon sausage. It has a unique taste and is healthy and reduces fat. Nowadays, green vegetables and moss are on the market in large quantities, so you can enjoy them all.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Wash and chop the green cabbage moss and set aside.

   

2. 2 Peel and cut sweet potatoes into cubes.

   

3. 3 Wash the rice and soak it for 2 hours in advance. The amount of rice soaking water should be the same as the amount of cooking water.

   

4. 4 Cut the carrots into cubes and stir-fry them first, using the same amount of oil as you would for stir-frying vegetables.

   

5. 5 Add green vegetables and sweet potatoes and stir-fry.

   

6. 6 When the vegetables become soft, add the rice along with the water and season with salt and light soy sauce. No additional water is needed.

   

7. 7 Continue to stir-fry until the water in the pot boils, then use the surface of a spatula to flatten lightly.

   

8. 8 Cover the pot, turn to the lowest heat, wait five minutes, and then tilt the pot clockwise in four directions: left, right, up and down, for five minutes in each direction. After two rounds, the pot is ready to serve.

   

9. 9 This method can also be eaten with crispy rice.
