Some cooking hacks for Rice Lovers:

 

If you want the texture(close to the medium grain rice) like Calrose(Japonica rice),

good to mix any Thai rice(Indica rice) with Sticky Rice.

 

      Japonica Rice                                                                    Indica Rice

                                            

 

At the ratio of 3(Indica Rice):1(Sticky Rice).

Rice & Water ratio: Rice 1: Water 1.2

 

And soak it for 30 minutes or so before you switch on your rice cooker.

 

Once the switch button flips back, leave it for 10-15 minutes.

This way, rice is finished nice and tender.

 

Also good to save the water you used to wash your rice in a bucket.

As it makes a good natural detergent.

If you soak emptied tub into it, for 30 minutes or so, it is a lot easier to clean it up.

And that same water also has an effect to help remove oily greasy stuff; soak your used dish and cups for several minutes before you wash them up.

Good morning.

Today's breakfast: Stuffed Omelet Bowl.

 

 

 

Ingredients:

Cold rice, and (pre-cooked) chicken mince,  onion, pumpkin, garlic shoots, potato, soy milk, tofu(bean curd), and raw egg.

 

Seasonings:

Chicken stock, soy, oyster, fish sauce, grated ginger(if you use any meat).

 

Stuff can be anything that suits your taste (e.g. chopped up bread, other kind of meat, canned tuna, or vegetable only. Can go with/without soy milk).

 

It takes skill to make an omelet with stuffing in it.

But if you use a bowl like this, and a microwave, it is pretty easy.

 

Put your favorite ingredients in a bowl, and mix them well with seasonings.

And then, pour 1-2 beaten egg(s) on that.

It will be tastier if you put small amount of stock in the beaten egg as well.

 

Finally, put a gentle cover on top of the bowl, and cook it for 3-5 minutes  or so, in a microwave at 500-600w.

Time duration depends on the type you got.
