Step 1
Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large pot over medium. Add 1 diced red bell pepper and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Stir in 1 cup rice and 1 tsp turmeric, coating the grains for 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 3
Add 2 cups vegetable broth and 2 chopped tomatoes. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
Step 4
Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes. The rice should be tender and liquid absorbed.
Step 5
Fluff with a fork, then stir in 1/2 cup black olives. Serve with lemon wedges and a rosemary sprig if desired.
