Fluffy Basmati Rice
This rice is my magical recipe to make all the family member get quickly around the dinner table. But first, we have to talk about the rice grains it selves. For this recipe you have to buy the basmati rice or any other good quality rice. Why? Because when you make this method of rice cooking which is covered pot, the quality of the rice is very important. Too long grains taint to break easily when stirring, too short taint to get sticky and by the way this one is perfect for sticky rice recipes. The brand I personally use is any good basmati rice in conventional stores. Rice is a dish that we all love small and big. My son is a picky eater, this is the only dish he loves that what made me think that maybe lots of people have at least one picky eater in their household...
the recipe is super easy, the cook time is about 30 to 40 min depending of the rice and the instruction in the back of the packaging. If you want to serve the rice with a protein and vegetables for example, try to start cooking the rice first so it get ready in the same time as the other dishes. This rice is a plain rice with a funny onion flavor, you can be creative and add whatever spice or fat in it. I used oil you can replace it with butter for example. Add some curcuma for more eastern flavor and so...
