I have to eat healthier, and this recipe is healthy and good. Sesame oil is key because it adds a nice flavor and smooth texture to the whole dish. The end result is not exactly like the one at the restaurant, Rice, but it is still very good. I’m always looking for ways to bring a little green in my meals without losing flavor and this did just that. The rice was really flavorful and the edamame added a nice textural variation. It’s good stuff.
