Assorted Vegetable Fried Rice

1 bowl of rice*

1/4 cup of chopped carrots,

1/4 cup of chopped celery

1/4 cup of chopped or sliced onion

1 egg*　(optional: you can pre-scramble the egg and set aside)

a pinch of salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and chili powder to taste

1/2 cup vegetable broth or simply water

a tiny dash of soy sauce for colour

2 minced/chopped garlic cloves

Heat a skillet and add about 1tsp of canola oil. Put in the chopped garlic cloves and onion and stir-fry until golden brown. Add all the vegetables, and the broth or water and bring to a boil. Wait until the veggies soak up the broth, then add the rice and combine well

Before serving, add salt, black pepper, and all the powder ingredients for taste
Then lastly the soy sauce for colour (otherwise it'd be too salty)

There you go!

* I personally prefer brown rice with assorted grains as in the pictures ( I buy the multi grain mixtures separately ; they come in packages at supermarkets, and just mix them with the rice before cooking)
