Ingredients
- 50g Salted Butter
- 9 to 12 Cloves garlic (approximately 2 heaping Tbs)
- 1 cups Jasmine rice
- 1.5 cups Water

Instructions
- Heat a large thick bottom pot that has lid over low heat. Add butter and let it slowly melt. (heat 1/10)
- Roughly chop garlic. Add into melted butter and increase heat to medium. Fry garlic for 4 to 5 minutes until garlic is golden brown and crispy. Stir occasionally so they will cook evenly. Be careful not to burn, it will give bitter flavor.
- Turn off heat and take fried garlic out on a plate with paper towel. Set aside.
- Turn back heat to medium; add rice into beautiful garlic infused butter. Stir to coat every single grain of rice with butter and toast them for 3 to 4 minutes until rice absorbed butter and toasted evenly. Stir occasionally.
- Add water; stir once and cover with lid. Increase heat to high and bring it to boil. When it starts boiling, reduce heat to low (1/10) and stir one last time from bottom to top with an wooden spoon. Cover back on, simmer for 15 minutes.
