    Nice video! Short and sweet – I make an Asian version but it’s funny
    similar they are. Just the aromatics change – ginger vs. jalapeno.

    I’ve been looking for this dish for years, I will be making this. I like
    it better with the little red round peppers.

    Hi Antelmo, In our version we do not add rice. Although you can add already
    cooked rice after you cook the soup! Thank you for your question. Enjoy!
