This recipe was inspired by two friends who happen to be vegans! Enjoy!
Ingredients
2 cups long-grain rice
1 large red bell pepper
1/2 onion
1 16 oz can of sweet corn
2 large vegetable bouillon cubes(1 large cube for every two cups of water used in the recipe. In this case, I ended up using 5 cups of water)5 cups water
1 tsp. granulated garlic
1 tbsp. alternative/vegan "butter"
1/4 cup vegetable or olive oil, or "vegan approved" oil
Chop the onion and bell pepper into 1/2 inch sized pieces. Put the oil into a large saucepan and heat on medium-high until it's about 350 degrees, or until it starts smoking. Add the onions and bell peppers, and sprinkle salt over them to help sweat out the sweetness in the vegetables. Saute until the onions are translucent. Add the two cups of rice. Stir rice until light brown. Add the 5 cups of water and stir. Heat to a boil, then add the garlic and bouillon. Stir. Reduce heat to a simmer. Cover and let cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to keep it from sticking to anything. After 15 minutes, turn off the heat, and let it stand for 5 minutes. Drain the corn, and mix into rice mixture with the "butter".
Serve!
