Prepare the rice
Rinse 1 cup of rice under cold water to remove excess starch. In a medium saucepan, combine the rice with 2 cups of water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until rice is tender and water is absorbed.

Prepare the pork
