Hi all,
Sorry, I have been a bit quiet recently! So I thought I would post a quick recipe!
We prefer brown rice at our place and I was never able to master cooking it in a traditional rice cooker, and I only ever managed to get it right two out of three times on the stove…
This is where Ellie stepped in and has saved my bacon! (or should I say rice?)
I have to say I rarely weigh anything or use measurements, so bear with me, and be brave!
STEAMED BROWN RICE
Ingredients:
Your quantity of brown rice
Pre-boiled water up to the 1 liter mark on the jug (you can boil water in the Intelli, but it will take you a long time, I find boiling water in the kettle then putting it in the jug works best for this recipe)
Method:
Put your brown rice in your steamer basket and rinse thoroughly (until you water is dry). I use about 1/8 – 1/6 of the steamer basket worth.
Fill your jug with boiling water up to about the 1 liter mark.
Insert your steamer basket with your washed rice in it.
Set time to 30mins, temperature to 100 degrees and speed 2.
Walk away and go and do something fun!
When the timer goes off, leave your rice sitting for about 5-10mins, then pull the steamer basket out. Use the little hook on the back of the spatula for this.
Cool your rice quickly and safely, or serve with your favorite stir fry!
I normally try to cook a batch a week and freeze it in ziplock bags in single serving sizes for easy to whip up meals. Love it and SOOO easy!
