Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup short-grain rice
  • 2 cups vegetable broth, low-sodium
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, extra virgin
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce, low-sodium
  • sliced green onions, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Rinse 1 cup of short-grain rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
  2. Soak the rice in water for about 30 minutes.
  3. In a medium saucepan, combine the soaked rice and 2 cups of vegetable broth.
  4. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 18-20 minutes until all liquid is absorbed.
  5. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for an additional 10 minutes.
  6. Fluff the rice with a fork to separate grains.
  7. In a small bowl, mix together 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce.
  8. Pour the mixture over the fluffy rice and gently fold it in to coat every grain.
  9. In a large skillet, heat another tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  10. Spoon in the seasoned rice mixture, spreading it evenly across the skillet.
  11. Cook without stirring for about 4-5 minutes or until the bottom turns golden brown and crispy.
  12. Using a spatula, gently flip sections of rice over to crisp up other sides and continue cooking for another 3-4 minutes.
  13. Once golden and crispy all around, remove from heat.
  14. Garnish with freshly sliced green onions just before serving.

Notes

Store leftover crispy rice in an airtight container for maximum freshness.

Reheat in a skillet for optimal crunchiness and flavor retention.

Serve with a zesty dipping sauce for extra flavor enhancement.

Use day-old rice for best texture and crispiness when frying.
