Personal Notes:
'Ao'ao Pa, ipu Po'alua better known as side dish Tuesday. But 5-0 has no side dishes just dishes... so given many of my dear friends state of mind thought I would give them a side dish they could truly enjoy.

Lets face it Commander McGarrett pretty much has it together with the swagger, quick thinking, tough demeanor a pure joy to behold. So creating a side dish that can rival this may be a challenge. It still must taste good and remain playful. I think that this rice dish might just do that , it is nutty, with a unique flavor, easy to make, and tastes amazing. Give it a try and let me know what you think and how close to the McGarrett mark I actually came.
