Rice With Carrots

This recipe goes great with my Curry-crusted Sea Scallops or any other dish which needs a little "lift". It is simple but presents beautifully with a number of dishes.

• Ready In: 12 mins
• Serves: 2

Ingredients

• 1  cup water
• 1⁄2 cup long-grain white rice
• 1⁄2 cup  shredded carrot
• 2  teaspoons olive oil
•  salt & freshly ground black pepper

Directions

1. Bring a medium saucepan filled with water to a boil. Add rice and boil about 10 minutes, until cooked.
2. Drain and toss with shredded carrots (if you don't like your carrots crunchy, you can cook them with the rice).
3. Add olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Toss well.
