Yugoslavian paprika rice

Finely chop the bell peppers and onion. Crush the garlic. Mix the stock with the water. Heat the oil in a pot and first sauté the rice briefly. Then add the onions and let them become translucent (I stir constantly). Reduce the heat at this point if necessary. Add the crushed garlic. Roast the bell peppers for a moment. Finally, add the tomatoes, spices, and stock. Bring everything to a boil briefly and then simmer on low heat for about 60 minutes. It’s best to add the peas and carrots after 30 minutes, otherwise they’ll overcook. Basically, this recipe leaves a lot of room for variation. You can also cook the rice in the bed/cooking box, for example. Fresh tomatoes or a large vegetable onion in the middle also work, of course.
