Preparation

Cook the Rice
Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes until the rice is tender and water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.

Make the Sauce
In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, cornstarch, and water until well combined. This will create a savory sauce for the stir fry.
