But since I was the only one to eat it, I had no complains.. Today, I was very admanant in getting the rice right and I followed everything you had mentioned... Now, at this very moment, I am eating the rice and it has come out so very well... <br /><br />I am away from mom (India) in Luxembourg and now when I go back, I can tell her that I learned to cook rice from Jeena.. Thank you so much....<br /><br />Love,<br />AjayAjay Narangnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72160418145248319.post-74061685318759492122009-10-13T18:55:21.865+00:002009-10-13T18:55:21.865+00:00Hi Hira,
Thank you very much for your great feedb...Hi Hira,<br /><br />Thank you very much for your great feedback. It is kind of you to take the time to write such a lovely comment.<br /><br />The pan of rice using 10 ounces will feed 4-6 people depending on portion size. <br /><br />If you want to cook for only 2 people half the quantity of ingredients, simmer for 10 minutes, take the pan off the heat and leave to steam for another 15 minutes or a little less depending on how you like your rice. <br /><br />Just remember to never lift the lid whilst cooking or steaming rice for this recipe.<br /><br />All biryani recipes vary. If you are adding ingredients to a pot of rice take into consideration how much fluid will be released from these ingredients. For exsample vegetables release a lot of water, some vegetables more than others. <br /><br />So generally when adding other ingredients to a rice dish just add a little less water. <br /><br />Also if you want to make a simple biryani, not traditional but still very tasty, try making a dry curry with small chunks of meat or mince, cook the rice in a separate pan. <br /><br />When both are cooked stir together adding the curry to the rice a little at a time so you can control how moist the rice becomes. Cover with a lid and leave to sit for another 5 minutes or so then serve.<br /><br />Feel free to email me if you need anymore advice.<br /><br />Thanks Jeena.Chef Jeenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16649018732887774182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72160418145248319.post-1885022978459310102009-10-13T17:53:25.541+00:002009-10-13T17:53:25.541+00:00Hi!

You do an awesome job with the pictures, and the step by step directions are only what come to your mind, naturally. <br /><br />I have 2 questions related to the quantity of rice and water: <br /><br />1. If I am cooking for two people, how much rice should I be using? 4 people? What would be the ratio of water with both of these quantities of rice?<br /><br />2. While cooking rice with a curry - both in the same pot, for example chicken biryani (and if we are not baking it, but cooking the tradition way: over the stove), how does this rice:water ratio change?<br /><br />Thank you so much for your help!hirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14642735592885103710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72160418145248319.post-29377841223056142112009-07-07T06:45:12.441+00:002009-07-07T06:45:12.441+00:00How about using native rice in our country?
