Place the rinsed rice in a pot with 200ml of salted water. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to steam, 8-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and cover.

Rinse the Spinach and the coriander. Roughly shred the spinach and pick the coriander. Peel and grate the garlic. Peel and roughly slice ½ the onion. Drain and roughly slice the pickled peppers.
