INGREDIENTS

1. 1 onion, sliced thinly
2. 1/4 cup peanut oil
3. 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
4. 3 carrots, sliced 1/4 inch thick
5. 1 small head cabbage, sliced
6. 1/2 to 3/4 pounds green beans, cut
7. 1 can tomato sauce or a half-dozen ripe tomatoes
8. 1 cup rice

Method:

1. Sauté onion until golden in peanut oil.
2. Stir in the cayenne pepper and tomato sauce and bring it to a light boil over medium heat.
3. Add all of the vegetables to the sauce; cover and return to boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer 5 to 10 minutes.
