DIRECTIONS
Heat the oil in a pot. Saute onions till translucent. Add celery, red pepper, and garlic. Fry for 5-7 min, until lightly brown.
Add the bay leaf and basil and cook for 2 min. Add the vegetable stock and bring to a boil.
Add the cabbage, tomatoes, swiss chard, sweet potato and broccoli. Reduce heat and simmer 5 min.
Add the rice, salt, pepper and cayenne. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 20 min, stirring occasionnally.
Add the beans and coriander. Cook for 5 min. Make sure to take the pot off the burner just before the rice is ready to avoid burning the bottom of the pot. Cover and let stand for 5-10 min (the rice will absorb the leftover cooking juice). Serve hot & enjoy!
