Garlicky Rice Recipes

GARLIC RICE

Steps:

• Peel garlic, then use a Microplane to grate cloves into a small bowl. Set aside. In a medium pot over medium-high heat, add oil and butter. Heat until butter is melted and frothy, 1-2 minutes, then add garlic and stir until fragrant and lightly golden, 1-2 minutes. Add rice and stir so each individual grain is coated in the butter and oil. Scrape down the sides of the pot and toast rice, 30 seconds.
• Add water and salt and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce to a simmer. Cover the pot with foil to prevent any steam from escaping, then place a lid over the foil and simmer, 20 minutes. Remove pot from heat and allow rice to continue steaming, covered, 10 minutes.
• Taste the rice. If rice is undercooked, drizzle 2-3 tablespoons water on top, but don't stir it in; cover the pot again and simmer on lowest heat, 5-10 minutes. Fluff the rice in the pot with a wooden spoon and serve.
• When serving, leave rice that sticks to bottom of the pot. Turn the heat to high and let the oil fry the rice till crispy, 5 minutes. (This is a special chef's snack called concolon!)
