mushrooms
a few dashes of soya sauce
1 cup rice
1 2/3 cup water

1 tsp sesame oil (optional)
fried pine nuts (optional)

• Heat oil in pot, add mushrooms, peas, carrots and corn. Fry for a few minutes until mushrooms gets dark in colour.

Note: When water level is at rice level, stir to mix the vegetables with the rice as sometimes the vegetables float to the top.
