Instruction:

Wash the rice, pour into a small-sized saucepan, add water then put the other ingredients in.

Cover then turn on heat to high and bring mixture to boil, then simmer til water becomes fully absorbed. Set it aside without the cover to cool.

Inside a saucepan over medium heat, saute onions (til golden brown) then add ginger and garlic.
