Mmm, food.

Rasfc has been discussing ways of cooking rice. I, while kicking around wondering what to make for dinner (since teinedreugan's out playing cards tonight) decided to implement thoughts on same.

Good stuff.

The usual two cups of water to a cup of rice was the start, though I put in extra water because I was messing with it and because I don't have a lid for the pot so it's not steaming so well. I chopped up the last of the bit of onion I have, because today is the Day of Chewing Onions for Bast according to the Per Ankh calendar and I like onions so why not? and added the chopped onion to the rice along with five little shrivelled red hot peppers I had left over from making flavored oil for brooksmoses.

And speaking of flavored oil, I used that and some butter and some white vinegar and cooked some chicken chopped as fine as I could get it (well, to be more accurate, as fine as I wanted to be bothered with) in that, and then added it to the rice and stirred it around so it was all well mixed.

And when the rice was done, I poured two eggs (lightly beaten) over top of it all and stirred it around until the egg cooked from the retained heat.

Foooood.

Mm, sounds delicious :) I came to say hi as I enjoyed your comment on the religion post in ursulav's LJ, came to read more and find you cool, nifty and a good read, so having added you thought I would drop some flattery in here also :)

It was good. A little bland, so I'll have to pondering at more thorough spicing some other time, but definitely good. :)

And hi! I've seen you around some various journals in the past, but I'm not sure whose. (Looking at comparative lists, probably Wired, Ard, and Elynne. . . .)
