- Add six cups of water to a saucepan, on medium heat, with the addition of salt and oil. When the water boils, add the rice to it, reduce the heat, and cook the rice (without covering the pot), until it becomes tender. Then, take the pot off the fire. Wash the rice after it is cooked, and drain. Cover the rice, and set aside.

Put green onions and celery in the pot, with garlic, in addition to carrots, cabbage, red capsicum and green capsicum, on strong heat, while stirring, until they turn brown in color. Note that the more finely chopped the vegetables, the faster they cook.
