How to get the best out of your Jamaican Curry Brown Rice Recipe
Brown rice grains are nutty-flavoured kernels of goodness- Prepare Jamaican Curry Brown Rice at Home making use of these tips: Brown rice features an oil-rich germ and is susceptible to rancidity, so store in the refrigerator in an airtight container. Brown rice will keep fresh for about six months. After rinsing brown rice, add one part rice to two parts boiling water- after your broth has turned to a boil, turn down heat, cover and then simmer for about 45 minutes for best results. You’d want to wash medium grain Brown rice under cool running water before cooking to prevent sticky-sticky rice. It hampers the palate of your dish as well. Remember to use the 2nd or 3rd extract for your coconut milk- if you boil the 1st one- it is sure to curdle. Use muslin cloth rather than a fine strainer. Season your dish with pimento seeds for an extra kick. Try this simple Jamaican Curry Brown Rice Recipe and enjoy a delicious and healthy dish!
