Aromatic Sticky Rice

Recipe #90126 | 20 min | 5 min prep | add private note

By: Sackville
Apr 26, 2004

I made this in a cooking class at Leith's in London. It's a very simple rice that always turns out like the rice served in Thai restaurants in London.

SERVES 2 -3 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 225 g thai jasmine rice
  • 425 ml water
  • 1 stalk lemongrass, bruised
  • 1 whole red chile
  • 2 1/2 cm fresh gingerroot, peeled and bruised
  • 1 clove garlic, peeled

Directions

  1. 1
    Put all the ingredients into a large saucepan and let stand for five minutes.
  2. 2
    Cover the pan and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and cook over a low heat for 10 minutes until the water is absorbed.
  3. 3
    Remove the pan from the heat and allow to stand covered for five further minutes.
  4. 4
    Remove the flavourings, if wished, and pile into a serving dish.
  5. 5
    Serve immediately, while very hot.

    Well, I've never been to London, and the Thai restaurants around Boston seem to serve plain Jasmine rice, but I love the idea of seasoning the rice! I use brown jasmine rice, and it did pick up the flavors from the aromatics. I will certainly be doing more of this in the future. I didn't give rating stars because I haven't yet figured out how to cook my rice very well, and I don't like the flavor as much as the white - but that's what our family eats. I also suspect white rice will pick up the flavors even more strongly. One thing - I am pretty sure sticky rice and jasmine rice are 2 different rice varieties altogether, and I was not sure which the cooking directions are for. So, anyway, Sackville, thanks for the super-easy idea for flavoring rick!

    I have to say I used this recipe more as a guideline, because I had made something similar before but couldn't remember my exact ingredients. I skipped the chile and had to use dried lemongrass (my first time using dried and I was impressed at how well it worked). I also added one star anise, which I love, and half a cinnamon stick. I really think Jasmine rice is the only kind for an aromatic recipe like this. Leftovers were great too. Paired with Green Onion Pancakes Green Onion Pancakes, 79216 Sichuan Pepper-Salt Prawns 37634 and Ginger Sesame Asparagus 79216.

    Easy and delicious, a recipe to tempt the taste buds. Seems I may have to grow Lemongrass if I wish to cook with it...found the dried worked well for me. This is a great recipe for rice lovers. Thanks for sharing. Gerry 999
