5. Add all the remaining vegetables to the onion, along with well-rinsed rice, salt, and sugar. Bring to a boil and simmer over low heat for 30 minutes. During this time, all the vegetables and rice should be fully cooked. Taste the rice; if it is not done, cook for another 5–10 minutes. My rice was ready in just 20 minutes—it depends on the variety. Optionally, you can add a piece of hot red chili pepper; I add several thin rings.
