INGREDIENTS
INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Boil separately the 3 types of rice, each one with 300ml unsalted water, for about 30-40 minutes, until they’re well cooked and there’s no more water at the bottom (this way, they will preserve their own flavor). Mix them all in a bowl and season them with some gomashio and 2 tablespoon of sesame oil.
  2. Finely chop the onion and the fennel, make them the same size.
  3. From the orange, cut 2-3 thin slices of peel, then squeeze it and use the juice to flavor the rice (adjust the quantity of juice according to your own taste)
  4. In a wide pan, mix the fennel, the onion and the orange peels with the juniper, a tablespoon of olive oil and a pinch of salt. Cover with a lid and cook on a low heat for about 20 minutes, adding water as needed to prevent sticking. Remove the juniper and mix with a food processer until you obtain a cream.
  5. Place the rice in the plates and create a crown, then fill the center of the crown with the white cream. Decorate with the second orange, previously cut into slices, and the green part of the fennels.
