  1. Finely grate the carrot and finely chop the onion and garlic clove.
  2. In a medium-sized saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of Olive Oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent and soft, about 3 minutes.
  3. Add the grated carrot to the pan and continue to sauté for another 2 minutes until the carrot softens slightly.
  4. Add the jasmine rice to the pan, stirring well to coat the grains in the oil and vegetable mixture.
  5. Pour in the vegetable stock, add the salt and black pepper, and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan with a lid, and let it cook for 15 minutes or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
  6. Once cooked, fluff the rice with a fork, adjusting seasoning if necessary. Serve hot as a fragrant side or light main dish.
