Perfect Rice For Stir Frying

1. 1

   Heat the oil on medium heat in a pot that has a lid.

2. 2

   Put the garlic and the onions in the pot and let them simmer until they are soft. They have to stay lightly colored, not brown.

3. 3

   When the garlic and onion are soft, throw in the rice. Give it a good stir so that all the rice is covered with the oil.

4. 4

   Turn the heat on high and stir some more for a few minutes.

5. 5

   Pour in some hot water and salt until the rice is nearly covered. Give it a good stir and turn the heat to low. Pour in the remaining water and cover the pot with a lid.

6. 6

   After 15 or 20 minutes, the rice will be ready.

7. 7

   We love to eat it just like that but the best part is that you can stir fry it properly. Especially the next day or even later than that; it will be good up to 3 days in the fridge.

8. 8

   You do not need more oil to stir fry. Throw in some veggies and some sliced chicken or beef.

9. 9

   Tip: If you like yellow rice, add some garam masala, curcuma (turmeric) or saffron with the garlic and union. It looks good with broccoli or other green vegetables.
