Mine did not turn out anything like the picture- and it burned to the bottom of the pot.
These instructions are horrible. Is it cooked rice or not? Brown rice takes 22 minutes to cook not 5.
The brown rice in the recipe is already cooked rice.
Looks like a good recipe except they forgot to put in the spices!
My Husband loved it. However, you must use exact amount of cooked rice. Frech cilantro and a squeeze of lemon juice make it extra savory. Loved it because it was a simple, semi quick and cheap vegan recipe.
The ingredients list it says use cooked rice.
Cmon!! If you follow the recipe it will come out great!!! First make the brown rice then make this recipe with your cooked brown rice! Yum!
I loved it! I cooked the rice first. It took 4 minutes. Then I made this recipe just the ways its says! Great dinner with beans and tortillas!
Burnt at the bottom
It burnt at the bottom
Saute the onions or they may be a little crunchy. Add the liquids first and then the cooked rice and measure exact amont of rice. Stir and cook. Could use some hot peppers for my taste.
The taste is good but there wasnt enough water for the rice to cook through and it was still slightly crunchy.
I followed instructions and got a burn notice so not a fan
Hi Lkm85,
Did you use cooked brown rice?
Use cooked rice! Maybe a squeeze of fresh lime to finish the dish.
Used cooked brown rice, tried to follow recipe exactly, cooking in 8 qt instapot, burn notice alternating automatically with preheat multiple times, but finally landed on burn notice only. Had to empty and finish on stove (bottom of pot caked on burnt rice). I did mix all ingredients instead of layering…maybe that was the problem?
When using the 8 Quart, we recommend adding up to 1/4 cup more water . Also adding the rice and water then layer the additional ingredients will ensure it doesn’t burn.
Mine also signalled “burn” so I cancelled the cooking and opened it when the steam dissipated. I added a
Cup of water and then turned it back on for 5 minutes because the rice was still uncooked. It was really tasty and I will make it again but with more liquid.
