Ingredients
1 tbsp. olive oil
1 red onion, finely chopped
1 red pepper, diced
1 green pepper, diced
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 green or red chilli, thinly sliced
300 g long-grain rice, rinsed

320 ml vegetable stock

In a large saucepan over medium heat, heat the oil. Add the onion and red and green peppers and cook for 3-4 minutes to soften. Add the garlic, chilli, and rinsed rice and cook for a further minute.
