Minced Pork With Steamed Rice

Ingredients 
1 cups Fragrant rice
2 cup brown rice
3 cups water
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
150g minced pork

Method
Wash brown rice, soak for two hours to stimulate germination, which activates various.
enzymes in the rice, resulting in a more complete
amino acid profile. although brown rice is a healthier.
alternative to white rice, it tends to turn rancid faster, as unprocessed rice ferments more quickly, so if you cook infrequently, buying brown rice might not be a good idea.
Wash fragrant rice with water to get rid of excess starch.
Combine brown & fragrant rice & add oyster sauce,soy sauce
and 150g minced pork mix well. Steam for 20 minutes.
When done, fluff up rice & dash some sesame oil before serving.
Note: If you like dark soy sauce...add 1 tbsp mix well.................!
