@Ess_Emm

brown rice is the worst in terms of looking like basmati rice. dont remember which brand we’ve been using but no matter how we’ve tweaked our recipe, it always turns into a mushy bunch. try using 2 cups to 1 cup of rice, and see how it does. you could also try boiling the rice in a nonstick pan on the stove top. hopefully it will look less like a ball of rice

Never used pressure cooker. 2:1 works for me perfectly. Brown rice needs more time to cook.

Brown rice I hear is much healthier. So we use white rice onky once in a while.

I already use 3 cups instead of 2 cups.

Heat water to boiling point. Add brown rice. Cook till Al dente. Strain the water in a colander. Put the rice back into the vessel you used for cooking, cook on heat for just a minute. Switch of heat, cover with a tight lid for 8-10 mins. The steam will cook the rice to perfection.

White rice or brown, this is how most of us South Indians cook rice. This process also reduces the starch quantity in the rice and makes it much healthier.

i normally don’t have that much time to cook it this way. thats the whole reason i got the rice-cooker

@jeans

40 mins or so…
