Number Of Ingredients 3

3 c thai long-grain jasmine rice
water, to rinse rice
3 3/4 c water (approximate amount)

Steps:

  • 1. Rinse rice: Add rice to a 2 1/2-to-3 quart heavy saucepan with a tight-fitting lid, and cover rice with cold water by 2 inches. Swirl rice around in water several times with your hand, and drain. Repeat procedure 2 more times, or until water runs clear. Drain rice well in a sieve to remove all water.

  • 3. Bring water to a boil, uncovered, and boil rice 15 seconds. Cook rice, covered, over very low heat without lifting lid, 15 to 29 minutes, or until water is absorbed and rice is tender. Remove pan from heat and let stand, covered, 5 minutes. Turn rice gently with a flat wooden spatula and keep warm, covered. Rice is best served within 1 hour of cooking.

KHAO PLOW (THAI JASMINE RICE)



Khao Plow (Thai Jasmine Rice) image

In Thailand, jasmine rice is nearly always cooked with just enough water to first boil and then steam the rice, and without salt or oil. Jasmine rice from Thailand is preferable, but you can substitute long-grain aromatic rice grown in the U.S.. As the rice cooks, it fills the house with its scent and the promise of good food to come. Those who have a rice cooker should measure the rice, wash it well, and cook it according to the manufacturer's instructions. If there are no water-to-rice proportions marked on your rice cooker, use the measurements set out in the recipe.

KHAO PAD SAPPAROD (THAI PINEAPPLE RICE)



Khao Pad Sapparod (thai Pineapple Rice) image

This is a thai dish with a lot of the flavor coming from the pineapple and coconut. I prefer to use thai jasmine rice but you can use regular white rice too. I used a can of pineapples instead of a fresh one since that was what I had on hand. Be sure to make just what you need, I couldn't stop picking at the leftovers!
