[@all4myutube]

You need to give more details, like how high the flame is, how long to cook it for, etc… nice rice though. Thanks.

[@bee-yn6fs]

The flame should be on medium to medium high heat since it is rice it can burn and ruin ur pot as well , cook it until the water is all soaked up into the rice which takes Around 20-40 minutes since it’s a big pot

[@nydoriaharrison4719]

[@HLuisGarcianerdragefitness]

My rice sticks to the aluminum pot every time 15 min when I check it. Forms a hard layer. Any advice?

[@GigisRecipes]

Is the hard layer in the bottom of the rice?? If so that's normal. If not Maybe the flames need to be a little lower or you need to cover it completely first. Hope this helps.

[@HLuisGarcianerdragefitness]

Gigi's Recipes it’s not the pegao I remembered from my family’s cooking. The bottom hard layer is stuck with burnt rice, not just the seasonings. Maybe I need to turn that heat down :/

[@GigisRecipes]

@@HLuisGarcianerdragefitness oh okay try it with the heat a little lower. Let me know how it comes out
