You have got a good number of collection...Hi Divya,<br />You have got a good number of collections. I tried your capsicum briyani/rice it came out very well. Thank you so much !<br />Actually I had a doubt later on when I saw your Briyani recipe. I read Diya questions and your answers,it was very clear. Just I need one clarification, you have mentioned in your answer that we can do rice: water ratio either 1:1.5 or 1:2. For that both method rice to be soaked for 15 mins right?<br />Then is it that if using ratio 1:1.5 after pressure we have to keep it in 5 mins in low then switch off, and of using 1:2 ratio we have to keep in Sim for 10 mins then off it? (because i see a difference ratio in ghee rice too)<br />So just got confused. Hope u understand my question.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />SandyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00316237962429510118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2615353642326436394.post-63723524838729526442013-03-09T11:17:22.061+05:302013-03-09T11:17:22.061+05:30Hi Divya,

My pleasure, No the rice doesnt turn m...Hi Diya :)<br /><br />My pleasure, No the rice doesnt turn mushy, but its not very grainy too, I hope you understand, a graniy rice is the one used for fried rice. 1:2 ratio gives a better cooked rice, you can see the above pic I have used 1:2 ratio but still the rice is grainy not very sticky but cooked to perfection. Reg your queries; <br /><br />1. The 1:1.5 (sorry for the typos, 1:5 is 1:1.5) is what I recommend for fried rice, pulao and dum biryani. As you can see it definitely needs such kind of texture. <br /><br />2. Yes only after soaking you must fry the rice, this helps your rice get well cooked and frying makes it grainy. <br /><br />3. Totally 10 minutes. 5 to 7 simmering minutes will do. Keep the cooker on high flame until pressure oozes out then place the regulator or whistle and switch to low flame and cook for 5 to 7 minutes. and after switching off the flame just keep the cooker aside until pressure drops this by itself is a dum procedure. (hope this answers your 4th query too) <br /><br />Thanks<br /><br />Divya Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07421160167445516566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2615353642326436394.post-5183218635104180302013-03-09T01:03:14.777+05:302013-03-09T01:03:14.777+05:30Hi Divya,
Thanks a lot for the quick reply.
You ...Hi Divya,<br /><br />Thanks a lot for the quick reply.<br /> You say 1:2 is good for pulao and Briyani. yeah tats well. But soaking rice and keeping water for 1:2 doesn't make the rice mushy? I got few queries, can u plz clear me up.<br /><br />1. Is it the case that if rice is soaked, the ratio for rice: water is 1.5(1:1/2) else its 1:2. <br />2. And do we need to fry the rice only when soaked<br />3. How many whistles/simmer in mints required, for the rice to be well grained, does it differs based on soaking or not of the rice.<br />4. And as regards of the dum, can we make dum kinda rice in pressure cooker<br /><br />can u plz clear me up ;-)<br /><br />Thanks,<br />DiyaDiyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09472829477940753765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2615353642326436394.post-74759301083944949422013-03-09T00:23:51.357+05:302013-03-09T00:23:51.357+05:30Hi Diya :)
Thanks for the appreciations... Yeah t...Hi Diya :)<br /><br />Thanks for the appreciations... Yeah the ratio differs depending on the rice you use for cooking and also on the texture you need. If you want to make a variety rice with basmati its well and good that you use 1:2 ratio after soaking it in water for 15 minutes.. I use this 1:2 ratio commonly. The 1:5 ratio gives you the grainy and 3/4th done rice but the 1:2 ratio gives a better cooked and slightly grainy rice. 1:5 ratio can be used for pulao, fried rice and dum biryani, depending on the texture you need. If you are using normal rice that you use for everyday cooking the ratio differs, but the most common ratio is 1:2.5 but it purely depends on the type of rice, if its too old the rice might need 1:3, always prior soaking helps reduce the cooking time, and amount of water needed to cook. <br /><br />So it purely depends on the texture you need my advice is go for 1:2 to get a well cooked rice or 1:1.5 to get a grainier rice. <br /><br />Thanks :)Divya Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07421160167445516566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2615353642326436394.post-16789656842847407832013-03-08T22:52:24.934+05:302013-03-08T22:52:24.934+05:30Hi,

I just have a doubt on ur rice varietIRS, each dish you use the rice and water measurementment differently. Is it 1:1.5 or 1:2 rice and water ratio? Plz do let me know which to follow.<br /><br />Thanks in advance,<br />DiyaDiyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09472829477940753765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2615353642326436394.post-18219718615206486262012-11-12T23:59:41.835+05:302012-11-12T23:59:41.835+05:30Thanks Meena :) Hope you enjoyed it!!
