Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups jasmine rice
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons plus 1 1/2 teaspoons coconut oil, melted
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
2 scallions, thinly sliced (white and green parts separated)
1/2 to 1 Fresno chile pepper, minced (remove seeds for less heat)
