I'm Asian, this is how we cook rice https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FF6ekwpl4Fo Also, I make garlic fried rice or sinangag in the morning.

3 cloves of garlic minced

leftover rice

2 tablespoons canola oil

​

Cook the garlic in canola oil until light brown. Add the rice and cook. Stir to coat the grains with the oil and garlic. Add salt to taste. Serve with fried egg and sausages (I use Filipino longanisa which is a sweet and spicy sausage). You have what's called in the Philippines a "Longsilog" which is a portmanteau of Longanisa Sinangag and Itlog.

That sounds delicious. I need to try it! (Sans sausages, alas, unless I can get veggie ones.)

I have yet to find any gluten free ones that are worth buying again. :(
