How to make New Orleans Dirty Rice

New Orleans native Charlie Andrews gives a demonstration on how to make New Orleans most popular dishes. It serves 4 people. Dirty Rice is a Cajun and creole dish that involves cooking rice which gets its dirty color from being cooked with small pieces of chicken liver, gizzards, Onion, celery, and bell pepper. Dirty rice is also known to some northern regions as rice dressing. It is made with ground beef or ground pork. This is a very good dish. Hope you'll be willing to give this New Orleans classic a try!

Charlie you're the Real Deal. I am a cajun girl and you Nailed this recipe. Thank you for telling the difference between dirty rice and rice dressing. And for representing our beautiful culture and native foods. Keep doing what you do. I'm so proud of you and your channel.🎉

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

I appreciate the compliments. I sure will keep doing what I'm doing. Thank you!!

You are Rollin with the recipes😋.. As a fellow N.O. resident, I must say you have the most authentic cajun/creole recipes on KZbin!! great work!

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

Thanks Reina! I'm trying my best! Feels great to hear from someone that's from the same area I'm from! Thanks so much my fellow New Orleans native. I'll keep representing our city with the cooking! ☺

I'm glad you mentioned the traditional ingredients because most recipes on the internet get it wrong.

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

Yes I agree with you! Thanks!

[@ebates73]

I was thinking the same thing most recipes on KZbin look more like jambalaya but they seem to think it’s dirty rice.

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

@@ebates73 You right too and the sad thing is that people are watching those videos and making those recipes thinking they are making Dirty Rice and the ingredients are not Authentic to the recipe itself!

[@lostbelowthefold4199]

Welp! I used half gizzards and half chicken Andouille sausage... The rice was supposed last a few days🙃.. It's already half gone! I believe this is what people call a setup.... Now I'm expected to make this all the time. Thanks a lot chef! Lol🙏

We have Asians, Hispanics, White and Middle Eastern people love this well seasoned cuisine! Texas wants you! If you build it and prwpare it, they will come Charles!

Charlie, another awesome presentation regarding “ dirty rice” and the difference between dirty rice and rice dressing. For my taste I agree with your use of gizzards rather than meat and liver as used in the “rice dressing”. The rice dressing you described reminds me of giblet turkey gravy which is very good, but your presentation and lesson on dirty rice is preferred. Thank you Charlie.

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

Thank you Robert for the compliments! I may come up with a new recipe video for Dirty rice using all of the ingredients like the gizzards, ground beef and liver but I may just call that one rice dressing instead of Dirty rice. You're welcome!

Hey Charlie, I really enjoy your videos. I am a New Orleans native who was displaced after Katrina and now living in Colorado. I've spent a lot of time trying to find people who cook cajun/creole food right. Problem is that a lot of people who know what their doing with cajun food make sloppy videos that are hard to follow. The people that make professional videos have great videos but you can tell they don't know what their doing. You are the perfect combination. I have chef Paul Prudhomme's cookboook and you seem to cook very similar to him, adding vegetables and seasonings at various stages to create layers. Keep doing what you're doing!

[@genevievegareaumosse3509]

QUESTION : Why do you rinse with cold water the cooked rice after it's cooked? Is it to remove more of the starch or to cool it off?

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

To be honest I think it is a habit of mines I've been doing since I started cooking rice. I just decided to rinse my rice and leave it as is. I'm guessing that it removes some of the starch but it works for me! I know some people like my grandmother she used to steam her rice in a strainer after she finished cooking it!

[@genevievegareaumosse3509]

Yes...I've done the same. My father taught me how to cook (not my mother, she is a musicia). I repeat what he did...he learned how to cook from my grandmother (his mother). That's how traditions are created I think.

Thank you Ms Barbara for the compliments! That's great to hear! I'm looking forward to hearing from you more often! Yes presentation is key when it comes to my videos!

It's sad but I have an Ex and that's the only thing I miss from her is her dirty rice - She used chicken livers and gizzards so I'll try it and incorporate the Chicken Livers to your recipe which is identical to her's Thanks for sharing and not having me to go back to her.

[@CharlieTheCookAndrews]

Wow. That is amazing. Happy that this recipe not only brought back memories of your Ex but it is identical to how she made her's. Now you can make it similar to how she did it! Awesome! Let me know the results when you're done! :)
