How To Cook Perfect Fluffy Rice | Jamie Oliver

[@irfanhandono]

In Indonesia, turmeric rice is usually cooked with coconut milk and pandan leaves. Also, we don't use that much turmeric for that little amount of rice. Turmeric is just for colouring. It'll taste bitter if you put it too much.

[@mehrnazbehzad]

Hi Jamie! In Iran we infuse the saffron separately with a little bit of boiling water and let it infuse,like a Persian tea on indirect heat, covered, and then when it's still quite warm, we add a cube of ice in it to give it a shock which will release 2 times more color and flavor for the same amount that you are using in this video, And we always grind our saffron in tiny tiny pestle and mortars right before using it, and if you have good Iranian saffron it'll give you the maximum flavor even if you add it at the last second after cooking the rice, and that's why our saffron infused rice is more powerful on the color and flavor compared to for example Spanish ones like in Paella. love your style:)

[@theplacebeyondthelies2429]

thanks for this, love to know about Persian culture food

High heat for ten mins gives you a lovely lush burnt and stuck to the pan pain in the arse mess. cheers.

[@lolatmyage]

So are you unable to think for yourself and need every piece of info spoon fed to you? Because its only your fault if you overcook it

[@fluid0]

lolatmyage I blame myself every day for what I have done. It has been a difficult time for me.

[@ashnur]

+lolatmyage When I was still a kid and tried cooking rice without regularly stirring it, it sticked and burnt to the bottom of the pan way before it was througly cooked. So yeah, I rather stir than not stir.

[@lolatmyage]

***** "when you were a kid" Why not try again now, when youre older? Maybe actually pay attention to how much heat youre putting into it? Maybe not cook rice in a pan? The water is spread out over a larger area, so there is less water covering the rice. A little bit of evaporation and youre basically frying it.

[@ashnur]

+lolatmyage 1. I am not trying it because I hate cleaning stuck and burner rice. 2. I put in as much heat as is needed to keep the water boiling, but not more. 3. I always used a cover as it is used here too. It was not because of no water, it was because when it sticks to the bottom, the water from top can't hydrate the part where it's stuck and the rice just simply burns

[@subbulaxmi100]

Hi Jamie, I am indian(south indian). Rice is very important in our daily meal. But we always wash the rice before put in a boiling water. And also we use turmeric in almost all the dishes we make, small pinch of turmeric is enough for the dishes. One tablespoon of turmeric is not good.

[@strength4147]

why do you wash the rice?

[@MetalcorePiper]

K2 High af, because all rice, every kind, gets a white dust on it. I'm making dinner right now and I literally just rinsed some. Put some in a pot and then add about twice that amount in water and stir it around. You'll see a cloud forming from all of the dust. It just makes sure it's clean, and it helps the rice not clump when it's rinsed. I usually do about 3 rinses in the pot: put water in, stir around, dump cloudy water, put water in, stir around, dump out cloudy water, put water in, stir, dump out cloudy water. I do this since I don't have a small strainer. It helps!

[@chroncile]

That white dust is probably vitamins. White rice is enriched with vitamins because some of it is removed during the milling process.

[@ToveriJuri]

you wash or rinse the rice because it removes starch. It tastes better has better texture and is healthier that way.

[@RiaLake]

Adrian Actually, l wash my rice and veg from the supermarket and so do my friends. All Brits. Best not to generalise.

DO NOT use 10 cloves . I used 9 and my rice came out practically disgusting, it was completely bitter. In addition, I couldn't taste any cinnamon at all. It was completely plain yellow bitter rice. Thankfully for me, my dad saved the day with stir frying it with dark soy sauce , spring onion, lime juice, garlic oyster sauce and fish sauce 😒👌👍.

[@princesandwichii7312]

[@thebasicCreator]

I like sautéing the rice in a frying pan and some olive oil first before putting them into the pot with the water. It just seams to bring out that nutty flavor a little more and makes the rice even more perfect. Try if haven't before, fantastic!

Thanks for the recipe Jaime! I live in Singapore. I have never dared go use ghe stove to cook rice as I once badly burnt the pot. I have always used the rice cooker. Most people here in singapore prefer the Thai jasmine rice (which is shorter grainan d stickier) but I prefer basmati rice as it has a lower GI value. I just tried your method to cook my basmato rice today! It really took only 9 min for the rice to be perfectly cooked! The bottom part was a little brown but not burnt!

Please can you inform me where can I buy durable but affordable ones? I have just subscribed and I am so excited about cooking new things and using new methods to improve my old ways . You are a gem in this generation ! God bless you and your family!

[@viggosimonsen5870]

Lots of things wrong with this video: 1. Ridiculous amount of saffron. It is an extremely concentrated spice. A few strains would have been sufficient. You don't want the taste of rice to be drowned in saffron. In addition, it is a very expensive spice, not to be wasted like that. 2. Also indian spices need to be fried in a little oil to extract the flavors before adding the rice and water. 3. Rice should not be boiled at high heat; on the contrary; it should simmer. That is what a rice cooker does. 4. Lastly, I think 2:1 is too much water for a thin grain rice like Basmati. 1.75:1 is enough to cook it tender, and will give a looser rice with a firmer bite. More water will tend to make it sticky and soft.

[@GamGuy547]

+Viggo Simonsen For me basmati should be closer to 1.8314159265359:1 otherwise rice gets an unpleasant bite to it.

[@viggosimonsen5870]

+Aris Ex That's also fine :-)

[@Bob23973]

[@Elamdri]

I have the suspicion that it might have been imitation saffron.

[@alwaysnever6004]

The point you make is very valid, there’s too much saffron been used. Did you also notice he put tablespoon of turmeric into it? Some celebrity chef really don’t know common sense

[@marlynerisko9907]

I cant beleive how easy that was and you know what? it worked perfect every time!!

[@JamieOliver]

Yes, it would be on a high heat but your rice shouldn't boil over because you are only using a small amount of liquid. Hope that helps.

[@emansalm7987]

I am one of your biggest fans and I want to tell you that I am a rice lover and I learned from my mother how to cook cedar and she says add two tablespoons of olive oil and a little salt to the rice and when you put the rice in the dish will be shining and wonderful also your style is very wonderful and you are the best chef in the world

That's not what Gordon said.

[@chrono1logic504]

Both Gordon, and Jamie had different minds, yes?They also both have different ideals, yes? Perfection is in the eye of the beholder. You cannot expect 2 people to have the same idea, which is Perfect.

[@ToveriJuri]

Gordon's is the more common and proper way to do it. It's something that people where rice is the most common ingredient do. Jamie's way works with the shit uncle ben's rice he's using, but as you can see in these comments this methods has failed for a lot of people.

[@theplacebeyondthelies2429]

there are many good alternatives to rice, such as quinoa, or lentils and others, rice contains arsenic which is toxic when consumed in high amounts as in say a whole pot of rice just for yourself, washing the rice before cooking is a good idea too

[@annekomen3354]

I have to try this out today. This just made me hungry...yummy!

[@sihigali]

Thanks for the recipe but that was way too much turmeric for rice. That would render the rice bitter and inedible. We add a pinch or two (a quarter or half of a teaspoon) of turmeric powder in everyday cooking. Even the number of cloves was a lot. Four cloves should do good for a cup of rice.

zbljoho1 Rice in Northern Asia is often clump together and are a little bit sticky. They are called "Short Grain Rice." European, SEA and American countries often use long grain rice which are meant to be fluffy. (Maybe aside from Risotto rice) In terms of taste, it varies by person.

Saffron is the most expensive spice ... It is expensive everywhere :) however he used tooo much of it, i'd say he putted like $5 of saffron in, generally you put abit of saffron into hot water separately (just abit) then you take some rice from the top and you mix it in to have 2 colours. Saffron is more about colour rather than taste

also expensive here in Saudi

Alexis Iscah You have a good point. i apologize. however i do know that rice breaks down during packaging and transportation creating extra starch in the rice so no matter what you should wash your rice.

[@DraciaNightcat]

That Is My Prerogative That's not really likely to happen with Basmati rice.

[@ghdrum]

I find that soaking the rice in cold water for an hour followed by a good rinse under the tap a few times helps wash off all the starch and stops it sticking when cooking. It also reduces cooking time so keep a closer eye on it.

[@NFITheShInEr]

If you want even better rice, by making the rice fluffy and having a bit of bite instead of it being mushy. Add oil to pan, warm it up, add rice and "toast" it until gold(even if it looks too dark, the water will soften it up). Then add volume of rice x2 water, turn it up to a boil, when it's boiling, cover it up with a lid and turn it down to low/med so it stays boiling slightly. Stir after 10 mins, if still slighty filled with water, let it run for 5 more mins. If still to hard, let it steam with lid on for another 5 - 10 mins with heat off.
