@MarkSkidMcCormick yes, you have to let the water boil first, also after you turn off the heat, leave the rice covered for another 20 minutes if you find it still soggy.
By: dedemed
@bewitchednour yes
By: dedemed
Hi Dede: How come your brown rice dish looks so perfect; whereas my version is soggy! I do put the rice in before the water boils, but not a happy bunny!

Middle Eastern women are pretty ;-D

would this recipe work with short grain rice?
By: bewitchednour
@Jenshenanigan Hi there, yes those are vermicelli noodles. As for the oil thing, it's personal preference , I do use olive oil occaisionall y as well. For the flavor you can use any one that you prefer.
By: dedemed
Hi Dede! Are those thin egg noodles also called vermicelli in Italian or fideo in Spanish? And was it your personal preference to use vegetable oil instead of extra virgin olive oil, and a veggie bouillon instead of a meat based one?
By: Jenshenanigan
