Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup Jasmine Rice, rinsed
  • 3 cups Potato Milk
  • 2 cups Water
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • Scallions and Sesame Oil, to finish

Method

Instructions

  1. Combine the rice, potato milk, water, and salt in a heavy pot.
  2. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
  3. Reduce heat to low and cook 40 to 45 minutes, stirring more often near the end.
  4. Notice the mixture thickening well before the rice fully breaks down, a direct result of the potato milk's own starch.
  5. Divide into bowls and finish with scallions and a drizzle of sesame oil.
