Vegetable Oil - 3 fl oz

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Boil the rice in a large amount of water for 20–25 minutes. The rice should be slightly overcooked, but the grains should not stick together. Drain the water using a colander, let the water drain, and spread it on paper towels to dry.

Step 2

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the rice in a single layer on top. Place it in the oven for 1.5–2 hours at a temperature of 80–212°F. The rice should be completely dry.

Step 3

Heat the oil in a pan (enough for the rice to float) — the oil should be hot but not smoking.

Step 4

Add the rice in small portions — it will start to puff up quickly. Remove it immediately with a slotted spoon and place it on napkins or paper towels to get rid of excess fat.
