Oat and Potato Rice: A Deliciously Healthy Option for Your Diet
Enjoy a Wholesome Meal with Oat and Potato Rice, Perfect for Dieters
We’ve made a special rice using oats and soft potatoes, known for their health benefits, especially for those on a diet. The oats provide a delightful ‘pop’ with every bite, complemented by the creamy texture of the potatoes. This rice is not only filling but also packed with nutrients, making it a perfect choice for a healthy meal.
Ingredients- 1 medium potato
- 1 cup oats (standard rice cup measurement)
- 1 cup rice (standard rice cup measurement)
- 400ml water
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare all the ingredients for cooking the rice. Peel the potato and get ready to wash the rice and oats.
Step 2
Place the rice and oats in a clean bowl. Gently rub them with water, rinsing about 3-4 times until the water becomes less cloudy. This will ensure a cleaner taste for your rice.
Step 3
After rinsing, drain the rice and oats thoroughly in a colander. Letting them drip-dry is important for achieving the correct water-to-grain ratio, which is key for perfectly cooked rice.
Step 4
Peel the prepared potato and cut it into 4 wedges. This size is good for cooking evenly with the rice and other grains, allowing it to become tender and meld into the dish.
Step 5
In an electric pressure cooker, combine the drained rice and oats, along with the cut potato. Add the measured 400ml of water. Select the ‘white rice’ setting and start the cooking cycle. If using a standard rice cooker, you might need to slightly adjust the water amount and cooking time.
Step 6
Once the rice cooker signals that the rice is done, gently fluff the rice with a rice paddle. Stirring from the bottom up ensures that the steam is evenly distributed, preventing clumping and resulting in a fluffy texture.
Step 7
Serve the finished oat and potato rice into your serving bowls. You’ll see the distinct oats and tender pieces of potato mixed throughout the rice.
Step 8
*For an even creamier texture, you can mash the potato pieces into the rice after cooking. *This rice is also incredibly delicious when mixed with fresh, chopped kimchi and a drizzle of sesame oil. Enjoy a satisfying and healthy meal!
