Wash and dry all produce. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Peel and mince @ginger{1%tbsp} until you have 1 tbsp. Thinly slice @scallions{2%pieces}, keeping greens and whites separate.

Heat a drizzle of @vegetable oil{2%tbsp} in a #medium pot{} over medium heat. Add minced ginger and scallion whites. Cook, tossing, until fragrant ~{1-2%minutes}. Add @jasmine rice{1%cup} and toss to coat. Stir in 1 cup water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a gentle simmer. Cook until tender ~{15%minutes}. Keep covered until the rest of the meal is ready.
