Ingredients

1 teaspoon rice wine vinegar
1 cup white or basmati rice, uncooked and rinsed
enough water to cook your rice to your liking
pinch sea salt
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon white cane sugar
2-5 green onions, white parts and ends removed
1/2 cup whole roasted salted peanuts
1/3 cup shredded sweetened coconut
sriracha and ponzu to taste

Directions

1

Heat rice, water, rice wine vinegar, sugar, sesame oil, and salt in a medium pot on high until bubbling. Cover and reduce heat to medium until your rice is sticky and tacky, but not over cooked. Keep a close eye on the rice and add more water if you need to. The consistency of the rice makes this dish.
2

While the rice is cooking, toast the coconut and peanuts in a pan together on low- medium heat. Remove the pan from the heat BEFORE the ingredients are done toasting, because they will continue to toast in the pan sitting on the counter.
3

Make a plate of the rice and top with the toasted peanuts and coconut. slice the green onions into pieces. Sprinkle atop the plate.
4

Dress the dish with sriracha and ponzu to taste, and serve.
