Gently rinse rice to remove excess starch and keep grains from breaking. Fry rice with a dash of oil until slightly golden. Combine tomato, garlic, onion, salt, pepper, vegetable broth, and serrano chile in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour tomato purée over the rice using a fine-mesh sieve. Add a small-sized cube of butter for more flavor and texture. Add yellow corn kernels, peas, and precooked carrots. Bring to a boil, cover, and lower to low heat. Let authentic Mexican red rice cook for about 25 minutes.
