  • 2 cups brown jasmine rice, uncooked and rinsed

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ teaspoon turmeric powder

Notes

Fridge: Store leftover rice in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days. 
Freezer: Let the rice cool completely and then transfer it to an airtight freezer-safe container. I love to use Souper Cubes Trays to freeze rice! Store the rice in the freezer for up to 3 months. 
Reheating: Reheat the frozen rice in a microwave-safe bowl with a little bit of water added to it until heated through, about 5 minutes or so.
