  1. Soak your rice in water and rinse 2-3 times.
  2. Keep the rice in water for a while in a bowl (bowl is important).
  3. Chop onions into long pieces and potato into small cubes.
  4. In a pan, heat up oil/ghee whichever you like.
  5. Once hot enough add a pinch of cumin seeds to oil.
  6. After a few seconds, (before cumin seeds burn) add your onion and potato and fry them for a while.
  7. Pour out water from the bowl and add the wet rice to the pan
  8. Stir a while
  9. Pour one and a half bowls (same bowl from step 2) of water to the mix.
  10. Add salt and cover it slightly.
  11. Don't stir, and once all the water is boiled out turn off the stove.
  12. Cumin seeds might've floated up so mix the rice in the same pan and make sure there is no water and cover it for a while
  13. eat

Yesssss! Basmati is absolutely the superior rice. I even just love the smell of it cooking.

Furikake is godly.

I’m a jasmine rice bitch tho. Jasmine, an egg, furikake, soy sauce, and a tiny bit of sriracha, so as to not distract from other flavors.

u.s., but most asian supermarkets should carry it worldwide

I prefer melted butter (salted) and lots of fresh black pepper, but similar idea

Add a raw egg and you've got a killer Japanese breakfast

Brown jasmine rice with butter, sugar, and cinnamon, but lesser species and toppings are acceptable, too.

Jeera rice with literally anything is my jam. Basmati is cool once in a while, but I just can't get used to it.
