    How to make one-pot sausage and rice

    Saute sausage and vegetables:

    Heat a pan over medium heat with olive oil.

    When hot, add the garlic, onion, and bell pepper, and saute for 2 minutes or until soft.

    Then add the sliced sausage and saute for 2 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent burning.

    Add seasoning:

    Next, add the tomato puree, paprika, turmeric, and soy sauce and stir to combine everything.

    Add the rice:

    Add the rice, stir, and add the boiled vegetable stock.

    Season with salt and pepper, cover with a lid, and cook for 4 minutes on low to medium heat.

    Add the peas and cook:

    Next, add the peas, stir well, and cover again. Let it cook for 5 more minutes or until the rice is cooked. Keep an eye on it. The time of the rice cooking depends on each rice type. Open the lid occasionally and stir to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pan.

    Garnish with coriander:

    When the rice is cooked, garnish with chopped coriander and serve!

    Tips for making this recipe

    Vegetable stock: Ensure you add boiled vegetable stock, so it doesn't change the rice's cooking time.

    Sausage: For a more intense flavor, use smoked sausage. For a vegan version, use vegan sausage.

    Rice cooking time: Rice cooking time depends on the rice brand/type you're using. Check the package instructions for a more accurate cooking time and adjust when you add the peas, so they also have time to cook. You should add the peas halfway through cooking the rice.

    Storage: Store leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
