Ingredients:

- ½ onion, cut up into small pieces

- 2 cloves garlic

- 1 cup grated carrots

- 1 cup uncooked white rice

- 1.5 tsp salt

- 1 Thsp olive oil

Directions:

1. Gather all your ingredients. You will need ½ onion, 2 cloves

garlic, 1 cup grated carrots, 1 cup uncooked white rice, 1.5 tsp salt,

1 Thsp. olive oil, and 1¼ cup of water.

2. Cook the white rice. I used a instant pot to do this but you can

also use a pressure cooker. Make sure the rice is fully cooked

when done.

3. Grate up 1 cup of carrots and carefully cut ½ onion.

4. In a medium pan, heat up the oil on medium heat. Add in the

cut up onion and cook until it's clear.

5. Using a garlic press, press two cloves of garlic and add it to the

pan. Cook for a few minutes.

6. Add in the cooked rice, grated carrots, and the salt and stir for

about a minute.

7. Add 1¼ cup of water to the pan and let it slightly boil.

8. Turn down the heat a little, and cover with a clear glass lid until

all the water is absorbed.

9. Turn off the heat, and keep covered for 10 minutes.

10. Remove lid and serve!
