sunrise 0 Posted February 23, 2003 Share Posted February 23, 2003 I definitely like grains for breakfast. Love traditional Japanese breakfasts, though I prefer brown rice whenever possible. I also like millet and/or buckwheat porridge with soy milk (can't drink cow milk). In the absence of a full Japanese brekkie (which is frequent) I like to down half a grapefruit first. Anyone tried black rice (from Indonesia)? Love it. Makes a great brekkie - cook it with banana and if possible use coconut milk. Link to post Share on other sites

mikazooki 0 Posted February 23, 2003 Share Posted February 23, 2003 black rice is news to me, but i have impressed many a japanese punter with a good ol' english rice pudding. they all expect it to taste awful, but r happily surprised. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted February 24, 2003 Share Posted February 24, 2003 mikazooki, can you email me one of your rice puddings. I should very much like to try it. Otherwise, how about posting the recipe? Link to post Share on other sites
mikazooki 0 Posted February 24, 2003 Share Posted February 24, 2003 ermmm, pretty complicated. 2 - 3 tblspn rice depending on size requirements. lge quantity of sugar (approx 2 heaped dessert spoons or is it tblspns? for 2 tblspn of rice) huge knob of butter (im sure about this bit). and, well, cover with more milk than u think is appropriate, about 2 cups for 2 tblspns, or maybe thats too much. stick in moderate oven in big flat dish till skin is brown (30-40mins or longer). serve with bit of milk or dollop of jam. im not what is considered a culinary master. the amounts vary. as do the results. (maybe the low expectations derive from having watched me prepare it) english cooking at its best . maybe i should start a cooking show! enjoy. Link to post Share on other sites

Ocean11 0 Posted March 30, 2003 Share Posted March 30, 2003 Your mum oughta send you something with a bit more rarity value than oats scouser (if that's what you mean). You can buy 'em in most supermarkets here. Now Marmite or Frank Cooper's Oxford Marmalade... Link to post Share on other sites
