Makes fluffy rice with a crispy golden crust. If you like it darker than what is in my photo, try running your rice cooker a third time.
I made this salad as part of an Iranian dinner I was making, which included basmati chelou (rice) and Persian Grilled Lamb Chops.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup basmati rice, rinsed and drained
- 2 cups water (approximate; go by your rice cooker directions)
- 2 tbsp. melted butter
- Sumac (optional)
Method:
Step 1
Place rinsed rice in a basic electric rice cooker and fill with water to the line.
Step 2
Cook according to your cooker’s directions.
Step 3
Make a well in the center of the cooked rice in the cooker and pour melted butter in there.
Step 4
Cover the rice cooker and operate again, as you did before.
Step 5
Remove lid and place a plate over the cooker opening. Invert.
Step 6
Sprinkle with sumac, if desired.
