Ingredients
- 2 cups white rice
- 1 piece onion
- vegetable oil
- 1 garlic clove
- a pinch of salt
- 3 cups of water
Instructions
- Check to see if there are any impurities in the rice. Then, gently rinse.
- Preheat vegetable oil in a skillet and quickly add an onion clove. Only enough to fry it; if you overestimate the amount, drain or retire with a tablespoon after it's fried.
- Immediately after, add the rice, toss in a piece of onion, and stir fry until it is perfectly dried.
- Add 2 cups of water, followed by a pinch of salt.
- Allow them to boil and check on them occasionally. To test if the rice is done, take out 1 grain of rice with a teaspoon and taste it to see if it is soft. If not, proceed with the remaining 1 cup of water.
- To avoid soggy rice, try not to add more water unless the rice is almost dry but the grains are still hard.
- Seve and enjoy!
