From sooogood. Do not make this in a rice cooker. It is not Chinese food. Because the rice is steam cooked, it is important not to open lid while cooking, and to add the correct amount of water. One recipe uses ketchup, not tomato paste. I am adding the option of adding more water for a mushier rice per UmmBinat's suggestion since she is from the region and would know. Cook to your taste. Ingredients:
1 cup rice |
1 tablespoon oil |
1/2 onion, diced |
1 1/2 cups water or 2 cups water |
2 tablespoons tomato paste or 2 tablespoons ketchup |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Wash rice 3 times. We are not making sticky rice here.
2. Saute onion in olive oil or veggie oil ,on medium heat for about 5 minutes until lightly browned.
3. Add rice until all grains are cooked.
4. Add water with tomato paste and salt and pepper mixed inches.
5. Turn flame up to high.
6. When mixture comes to a boil, cover with a tight fitting lid.
7. Reduce to a simmer; allow to cook 20 minutes; turn off heat.
