Rice Cooker Green Rice Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Add the butter to your rice cooker and place on Cook. When the butter is melted, add the onion and cook until the onion is softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
• 2. Add the rice, stock, salt, and cilantro, and stir together. Place the lid on the cooker and allow to cook until it switches to Warm setting. Leave on Warm for 10-15 minutes.
• 3. Fluff with rice paddle, serve as a side dish and enjoy.

Steps:

• Cut chiles into large pieces. Remove seeds and veins for a milder rice, or leave them in for a much spicier rice. I usually remove seeds but leave veins.
• In a blender, combine chile pieces, 1/2 cup chicken stock, garlic cloves, cilantro leaves and salt. Blend until smooth. Add more chicken stock if necessary for easier blending.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Saute onion until soft. Add rice and stir for another minute.
• Pour rice/onion mixture into rice cooker. Add chile puree and remainder of chicken stock. Give a quick stir and set rice cooker to the cook setting.
• When cooker cycle ends, fluff rice. Some rice may be crusty on the bottom of the cooker pan - this is the tastiest stuff. The rice may need to steam a few extra minutes on the warm cycle until it reaches your desired consistency.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper and lime juice if desired. You can also garnish with sliced green onion.

Steps:

• Set rice cooker to Quick Cook or regular/Brown Rice cycle.
• Place the butter in the rice bowl.
• When melted, add the onion.
• Cook stirring, until onion is softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Add rice, water, salt and cilantro to the rice cooker bowl.
• Stir to combine.
• Close the cover and reset for the regular/Brown Rice cycle, or allow the regular/Brown Rice cycle to complete.
• When the machine switches over to the Keep Warm cycle, let the rice steam for 15 minutes.
• Fluff rice with wooden or plastic rice paddle, or wooden spoon.
• This rice will hold on Keep Warm for up to 1 hour.
• Serve hot.
