"Thai red rice" Posted by IceCat on 09-12-09 at 05:12 PM
No recipe - just an ingredient So good you can eat it with no seasoning and no other ingredients. It's great if you don't want to load a plate up with thick sticky white rice. One or two table spoons of this hearty, flavorful rice is much more satisfying than an entire plate full of the white stuff. It takes almost an hour to cook because you have to pre-soak it for 30 minutes but it is sooooooo worth it. I keep a plastic container of cooked red rice in fridge and when I make a stir fry or a curry or a soup, I stir in a few table spoons of the red rice at the very end of cooking. All the taste and satisfaction of a really flavorful rice but with maybe a tenth of the calories and whole butt-load of fiber!
