Step 1
In a pot over medium heat, heat the oil and sauté the finely chopped onion. Add the carrot and bell pepper (with thin skin), diced into small cubes, along with the minced garlic. After a minute, reduce the heat and pour in the rice vinegar. Simmer the vegetables for ten minutes until they are tender.
