Directions

1
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Sauté the onion and garlic for about 3 minutes, until golden and fragrant.
2
Add the rice and stir for 2 minutes to toast it lightly and coat each grain with oil.
3
Stir in the soy sauce and tomato sauce until well combined.
4
Pour in the hot broth (avoid using the full bouillon cube to prevent oversalting). Stir gently.
5
Add the beef, green beans, bell pepper, and carrot. Mix carefully.
6
Cover and simmer over low heat until the rice is al dente. Add a splash of boiling water if needed to finish cooking.
