Start off by washing your rice and putting it to cook in the rice cooker. If you don't have a rice cooker, you can cook the rice over the stove but will likely need 3 cups of water total instead.

This is a must have for those absolute peanut lovers! If you find it too peanut-y, you can use 1/4 cup of peanut butter instead. I like mine spicy, so I often add more chili and curry paste! Enjoy!
