Com Do (Vietnamese Tomato/ Red Rice)



Adapted from Luke Nguyen & Mark Jensen's Secrets of The Red Lantern


Ingredients...

- 150 g (3/4 cup)rice, cooked, left in the fridge overnight
- 10 g butter
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 2 tbsp tomato paste (concentrated puree)
- Salt to taste


How to...

1.Put the cooked rice into a large bowl. Wet your hands slightly so the rice doesn't stick to them, or don a pair of plastic gloves, and break up the rice.

2.Place a wok over medium heat, add half the butter and the garlic and stir-fry until the garlic is fragrant, then add the rice.

3.Increase the heat and, using a wooden spoon, stir and toss the rice.

4.Add the tomato paste and continue to stir-fry, working the tomato through the rice until it is evenly coloured. Add the remaining butter and fry until it is incorporated.

5.Season with salt and serve.


something different than normal fried/plain rice.
