Drizzle sesame oil around the pot and give everything a good stir. Add 10g water to compensate for evaporation. Turn heat down to low, cover lid, cook for 25min. Rotate pot every 5min to distribute heat evenly.

Turn off heat and let the pot steam itself for 15min. At this point, you can add ingredients and sauces to the pot.

Notes

Different rice can affect the durations in directions. Dial timing on step 2 if the final rice is too wet and vice versa. Don’t overcook the rice on the last stage for too long, rice can turn mushy and crisp can go stale. Contrary to most posts I’ve seen that uses long grain rice, my method does not require rice to soak in water for extended time periods. In fact, I find that the rice tends to soak up too much water and turns mushy.
