Add 1/4 cup of olive oil to a pan and add the washed green onion, frying until golden brown.

2

Add 8 cups of water to the pan and bring to a boil.

3

Add 1 teaspoon of salt and the whole Magie Cube, stirring until dissolved.

Once the water is boiling, add the washed rice to the pot, ensuring it sits on top of the water.

5

Stir the pot and cook on medium-high until the water is mostly evaporated.

6

If necessary, remove excess water from the pot, then add back about a cup of the removed water to steam the rice.

7

Cover the pot and reduce the heat to medium-low to allow the rice to steam for 15 minutes.

8

Check the rice after 15 minutes; it should be fluffy and cooked through.

Remove the green onion from the rice before serving.
