About 15 minutes before beef is done, prepare Yellow Rice. While rice is cooking, increase cooker setting to high; add corn. Cover; cook for 5 minutes. Add cabbage; cover and cook until cabbage is bright green, 8 to 10 more minutes. Stir in cilantro; season with salt and pepper. Ladle soup into wide, shallow bowls; add a scoop of rice to each. THE RICE 1 tablespoon salad oil 1 small onion, finely chopped 1 cup long-grain white rice 1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric 1 3/4 cups water Heat oil in 2-quart pan over medium heat.

Pour in the water and reduce heat to low and cook until rice is tender, about 20 minutes.
