Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, wash 3 cups of rice thoroughly and soak it for at least 30 minutes. Place the soaked rice in your rice cooker. Add just enough fresh water to cover the rice. Then, evenly spread the clean bean sprouts on top of the rice.
Step 2
Now, drizzle 3 tablespoons of rich perilla oil over the water and rice. Perilla oil helps to remove any ‘green’ smell from the bean sprouts and adds a deep, savory flavor to the rice.
Step 3
To season the rice, sprinkle 1 teaspoon of salt evenly over the water. Adjust the amount to suit your child’s taste, as it’s for their meal.
Step 4
Close the pressure cooker lid securely and heat it on high heat. Once the whistle starts to blow (indicating it’s reaching pressure), reduce the heat to low and cook for another 5 minutes. After turning off the heat, let it steam for 5 minutes before carefully releasing the pressure.
Step 5
Serve the freshly cooked, warm bean sprout rice in a bowl. Mix it with a little soy sauce and sesame oil that your child enjoys. The combination of the chewy bean sprouts and savory seasoning creates a delicious bean sprout rice that your child will absolutely love. Enjoy this nutritious and delightful meal!
