Quick and easy, great when standing over the hob is not an option. Most microwavable jugs are dishwashable too!
Microwaved scrambled eggs
Ingredients
- 120g wholemeal basmati rice.
- 240ml boiling water.
Directions
To scale up, see table below. The times are critical, as is the quantity of milk to make the emulsion.
For one egg
- In a litre jug, pour 240ml boiling water on 120g rice.
- Cover with a vented lid.
- Heat @ 1000W for 5 minutes.
- Heat @ 600W for 9 minutes.
- Stand for 5 minutes.
- Fluff with a fork and serve.
The real beauty is it is hands off cooking. Set up the pot in the microwave and you don't even need to drain the rice.
