Title: TM5 Automated Programe: Rice
Post by: Cornish Cream on September 12, 2014, 05:14:57 pm

I thought I would try this automated recipe for rice.Very interesting to follow as it doesn't use the simmering basket
It makes a huge amount :o Great for a large family.I did reduce the salt to 5g and personally I think the rice needs thorough washing before adding to the seasoned water as my cooked rice ended up sticky. :P

It certainly doesn't look as nice as what we make in our TM31's Denise.  Would you use the automated recipe next time or would you just do your own thing?

Doesnt look great CC. I think every type of rice is different so maybe you need to find the perfect absorption method rice.

I generally buy from the Indian grocery. the local Indian restaurant recommended we buy rice that has been aged and rinse well before cooking

I always use basmati except for rice pudding and risotto.
