Cooking Steps
• Finely chop garlic. • In a medium saucepan, melt the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. Cook garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the water and a generous pinch of salt and bring to the boil. • Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and all the water is absorbed, 10 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so don't peek!
• Meanwhile, thinly slice cucumber into rounds. • In a medium bowl, combine the vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt. • Add cucumber to pickling liquid. Add enough water to just cover cucumber. Set aside.
TIP: Slicing the cucumber very thinly helps it pickle faster!
