Ingredients
- 1 head of garlic (about 12 cloves) cloves peeled shopping list
- 2 tbs vegetable oil, plus more for drizzling shopping list
- 2 cups black rice (black or forbidden rice is available at Asian specialty stores or on Amazon.com) shopping list
- 2 cups water shopping list
- 1/4 lb lean bacon, coarsely chopped shopping list
- 1 medium onion, cut into 1/2-inch dice shopping list
- 1/4 cup soy sauce or tamari shopping list
- salt and freshly ground white pepper shopping list
- 4 scallions, coarsely chopped shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Put the garlic cloves on a double sheet of foil and drizzle with vegetable oil. Seal the foil around the garlic and bake for about 1 hour, until the garlic is soft and caramelized. Let cool, then refrigerate over night.
- Meanwhile, in a saucepan, cover the black rice with water and bring to a boil.
- Cover and cook over low heat for about 20 minutes, until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender. Remove from the heat and let stand, covered for about 10 minutes. Spread the rice on a large rimmed baking sheet and let cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
- In a large, deep skillet, cook the bacon over moderate heat until crisp, about 6 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to a plate.
- Pour off all of the fat in the skillet and add 2 tbs of oil. Add the onion and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 6 minutes. Stir in the bacon, black rice and roasted garlic and stir-fry over moderately high heat until warmed through, about 3 minutes. Stir in the soy sauce and season with salt and white pepper. Transfer to bowls, garnish with the scallions and serve right away.
