Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Jasmine rice
- 2.5 cups Chicken broth
- 1 inch piece, thinly sliced Fresh ginger
- 3 tablespoons Oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 2 stalks, finely chopped Green onion
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Rinse the jasmine rice in cold water until the water runs clear, then drain it well.
In a medium saucepan or rice cooker, combine the rinsed rice and chicken broth.
Add the thinly sliced ginger to the rice and broth mixture. Stir briefly to distribute the ginger evenly.
If using a saucepan, cover with a lid and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 15-18 minutes, or until the rice has absorbed all the liquid. If using a rice cooker, follow the manufacturer's instructions.
While the rice is cooking, heat the vegetable oil in a small skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté until fragrant and golden, about 1-2 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix together the oyster sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.
Once the rice has cooked, remove it from the heat and fluff it gently with a fork.
Pour the prepared garlic and sauce mixture over the rice and gently fold it in to ensure even distribution.
As a final touch, sprinkle the chopped green onions over the rice.
Serve warm as a standalone dish or as a side to complement your favorite protein or vegetable dishes.
