When rice is done, transfer to a large baking dish and slowly pour half of the vinegar mixture over rice, tossing continuously. When the rice has absorbed the liquid, repeat with remaining liquid. Heat a small skillet over medium heat and add 2 Tablespoons of oil. When hot, add garlic, ginger, green onions and jalapeno, cooking and stirring until vegetables are tender.
