Rinse the rice, leave it to soak for 30 minutes in cold water, and drain it well. Remove the tough lower stems from the greens and cut them to 4 cm. Toss them with 1 tbsp soup soy sauce, 1.5 tsp sesame oil, and 1 tsp minced garlic. Put the rice, stock, and 0.3 tsp salt in a heavy pot and spread the seasoned greens over the top. Heat on high for 5 minutes, reduce to low when the pot boils, and cook for 15 minutes. Turn off the heat and rest the pot covered for 10 minutes. Add the remaining 1.5 tsp sesame oil and 1 tsp sesame seeds, then fold from the bottom 2 to 3 times before dividing the rice between two bowls.
