Brilio.net - Eating white rice is a common habit among Indonesian people. This source of carbohydrates is easy to find and affordable. Its delicious taste also makes it suitable to be combined with various side dishes and vegetables.
Before enjoying rice, the rice cooking process must be done first. Many people choose to use a rice cooker to cook rice , because this tool can speed up the cooking process and produce well-cooked rice. However, sometimes the use of a rice cooker can cause rice to become crusty, especially if the rice is left in the rice cooker on. This crusty rice is often unfit to eat because of its hard texture.
To overcome this problem, some people add other ingredients such as cooking oil. Adding a little cooking oil to cooked rice can make the rice more sticky and not crusty. However, there are actually other alternatives that can be used without having to add cooking oil when cooking rice.
There are other ingredients that can replace cooking oil to prevent rice from becoming crusty. Facebook user ad3n_cooking shared this tip. In addition to making rice not crusty and soft, the ingredients used also provide a more delicious and savory taste.
According to information reported by BrilioFood on Wednesday (11/9), there are several additional ingredients used by the Facebook user when cooking rice. In addition to rice, he added two cloves of chopped garlic and five thinly sliced lime leaves to enhance the flavor. The garlic and lime leaves are sauteed with margarine to make it even more delicious, while also helping the rice become soft and not crusty.
For the steps to make it, prepare two cups of rice. Wash the rice thoroughly and put it in the rice cooker pan. After that, add three cups of clean water to the pan.
