Instructions

  • Heat a large pan over medium heat and sauté the onion, carrots, and celery until softened and fragrant, about 5–7 minutes.
  • Add the rice to the pan, stirring to coat it with the vegetables and distribute evenly.
  • Pour in the water and add the salt. Stir well and bring to a gentle boil.
  • Lower the heat to a simmer, cover the pan, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the rice is soft and has absorbed the liquid, about 20–25 minutes.
  • At the very end of the cooking process, stir in the chopped dill and parsley for a fresh, aromatic finish.
  • Remove from heat, fluff the rice with a fork, and serve immediately. The rice will be moist.
