🥄 Texture
Buttery, slightly oily rice grains coated in melted butter with tender-crisp broccoli florets that retain a little bite. Sliced avocado folded in at the end adds a creamy, velvety contrast that softens the overall mouthfeel.
👃 Aroma
Warm, rich butter and toasty rice aromas dominate, joined by a fresh green, slightly vegetal scent from the stir-fried broccoli. A faint peppery note and the mellow, nutty aroma of ripe avocado round out the fragrance.
🍷 Pairs Well With
Light jasmine green tea or a crisp, unoaked sauvignon blanc; alternatively a clean, mild lager or sparkling water with a lemon wedge to cut the richness.
🥗 Side Dishes
Grilled or broiled teriyaki salmon, miso soup, quick pickled cucumber or daikon salad, steamed edamame with sea salt

Instructions
- 1
If using uncooked rice, boil 1 cup rice in 2 cups water for 15 minutes until tender, then drain. If rice is already cooked, skip this step.
- 2
Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chopped broccoli florets and stir-fry for 5-7 minutes until the broccoli becomes tender and slightly golden. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- 3
Add the cooked rice to the pan with the broccoli and stir everything together for 2-3 minutes, breaking up any clumps of rice.
- 4
Reduce heat to medium and add 3 tablespoons butter to the pan. Stir continuously for 1-2 minutes until the butter is melted and coats all the rice evenly. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
- 5
Remove the pan from heat and gently fold in the sliced avocado until just combined. Be careful not to mash the avocado too much.
- 6
Divide into serving bowls and serve immediately while still warm.
