This quick and easy recipe is used with a rice cooker. I used a cheapo from Walmart for years and it worked fine. When it started burning the bottom layer of rice, I invested in one from Williams-Sonoma and it rocks!
HOW TO MAKE PERFECT RICE:
1. First, rinse your rice.
2. Place rinsed rice in your rice cooker. Today I am using 2 cups of rinsed brown rice.
3. Chop up 1 medium sized onion and place in rice cooker. Lately I am really into Vidalia sweet onions.
4. Instead of filling the indicator line with water in your rice cooker, add soup with a little bit of water, instead! Today I am using Imagine Natural Creations Creamy Portabella Mushroom Soup. When I make basmati rice, I like to add Imagine Natural Creations Organic Creamy Tomato Basil Soup. The great part about adding these soups is that all of your seasonings are already included so when the rice finishes cooking, it’s tabletop ready!
5. Set your rice cooker to “brown rice” (or white rice, depending on your selection). Set it and go. Brown rice takes about two hours to cook, so be sure to plan for it. White rice like basmati and jasmine can be set to “quick cook” and be ready in thirty-five minutes.
6. Enjoy!
Happy eating!
