Begin with assembling all your components.

You’ll require 180 grams of whole grain brown rice.

Two cups of low-sodium plant-based broth.

One medium onion chopped.

3 garlic cloves, pressed or finely chopped.

A fresh red bell pepper, cut into thin strips.

100 grams of frozen green peas.

One cup of cooked chickpeas.

A generous pinch of saffron, bloomed in 30 ml of warm liquid.

A dash of sweet or hot smoked paprika, to taste.

15 ml of high-quality cold-pressed olive oil.

Season with sea salt as needed.

For finishing, consider chopped cilantro or a drizzle of lemon zest.

Warm the oil in a large paellera or skillet over medium flame.

Toss in the onion and sauté until soft and glowing, roughly 5 minutes.

Cook the bell pepper until it loses its raw crunch and becomes tender.

Now introduce the rice, stirring thoroughly to coat each grain.

Toast the grains for قیمت برنج قهوه ای a brief 120 seconds to deepen their natural nuttiness.

Pour the warm vegetable stock and saffron soak together into the pan.

Replace the lid and cook until fully done.

Once the grains are soft and no excess liquid remains, take the pan off the stove.

Let it rest for five minutes covered.
