This recipe was for a pot about 10″ round and 5 1/2 – 6″ high almost full. I am thinking 8 – 10 cups of rice, but I think the recipe is quite forgiving.

Ingredients

  • Non-Bulbing onions – bunch about 2 1/2″ round – sliced 1″ (I found an onion called Kyoto Kujo Negi)
  • green onions – bunch about 2 1/2″ round – sliced 1″
  • garlic chives – bunch 1″ round – sliced 1″
  • 1 very small purple onion – chopped fine
  • cilantro – a large bunch about a hand full grasped at the stems – chop finely leaves and stems
  • garlic – 1 small cloves smashed (with a round river rock!)
  • fresh green chili – 2 slices from this cut lengthwise, no seeds. Or to taste.
  • salt
  • oil to fry – say 2 -3 tablespoons
  • left over rice – say 8 – 10 cups for this recipe

Recipe

  1. Heat the oil to med-high.
  2. Add purple onion and saute 2 minutes, stirring.
  3. Then add, both green onions, garlic chives, and chili slices. Saute about 5-7 minutes, stirring as needed.
  4. Add salt. Again do not over salt.
  5. Add the garlic and saute 1 minute only so as not to burn it.
  6. Add the rice breaking up any lumps with your fingers. Stir and mix well.
  7. Taste for salt and adjust.
  8. When the rice is hot add the cilantro. Stir and mix well. It’s done!
  9. Excellent!!
