Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.
Blend the scotch bonnet, red bell peppers, and tomatoes into a smooth paste.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent.
Add the blended pepper and tomato mixture to the pot and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stir in the mixed spices and salt, allowing the mixture to cook for another 5 minutes.
Add the rinsed rice to the pot, stirring well to coat the rice with the sauce.
Pour in 4 cups of water, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.
In a separate pan, lightly sauté the mixed vegetables until tender.
Once the rice is cooked, gently fold in the sautéed mixed vegetables.
Serve the Jollof Rice hot, garnished with additional vegetables if desired.
