Riceberry is a hybrid Thai rice that's nutrient dense and yet it cooks just like regular Jasmine rice. With a stunning purple hue and savory flavor, it's being billed as the next superfood. But does it live up to the hype?

Riceberry

Riceberry (about 1 US cup)

water (1 2/3 US cups)

Add the riceberry and water to a heavy bottomed pot. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil.

When you see a steady stream of steam escaping from the lid, turn down the heat until you don't see much steam escaping and set the timer for 20 minutes.

When the timer goes off, turn off the heat and let the Riceberry steam for another 10 minutes without opening the lid.

After the rice is done steaming, remove the lid, and use a rice paddle or spoon to fluff the Riceberry and serve.

All About Riceberry

This easy Thai Fried Rice recipe is one of my favorite go-to meals on a busy weeknight. Use leftover rice and your favorite protein and veggie additions to make it like you like it.

Easy Thai Fried Rice Recipe

rice

eggs (beaten)

green onions (chopped)

fish sauce

soy sauce

ginger

garlic (minced)

Tbsp. sesame oil

Tbsp. fresh cilantro (chopped)

Add your oil to a wok or large frying pan and heat over medium-high. When the oil is hot, add your garlic and fresh ginger (if using ground, wait to add it until you add the rice). Saute for 60 seconds.

Add your rice and stir it around to coat it in oil. You may feel like you want to add more oil, but don’t. You need the rice to get some good color and texture on it, and too much oil will just make it…well, oily.

Fry the rice for 30 seconds and then stir it around to expose the un-fried side to the heat. Cook for another 30 seconds, and stir. Add your soy sauce and fish sauce and stir it in.

Move your rice mixture out of the center of the pan, making a little well for your eggs. Pour your beaten eggs into the center and let them cook for a few seconds undisturbed. Now, break up the eggs and stir into your rice, making sure to mix everything together well.

Add your green onions and cilantro and stir well. Taste a bite of it with a spoon to make sure everything is seasoned well and heated through. If it needs more flavor, add a bit more soy sauce, or even some red pepper flakes for some heat.

Serve garnished with a bit more cilantro for color. Enjoy!

Easy Thai Fried Rice

Learn how to make sticky rice (without a bamboo basket steamer). This stovetop method of making Thai sticky rice is easy, using kitchen tools you will likely already have at home.

How to make sticky rice (without a bamboo basket steamer)

rice,

Salt. Optional. For sprinkling some to season the cooked rice.

Wash the sticky rice. Wash and rinse the sticky rice in a large bowl with cold water. Use your fingers to swoosh around the rice grains in the water. Drain the water and repeat the process 3-5 times until the water is mostly clear and not cloudy white. We do this to rinse off the rice's starch and help give the rice a soft and chewy texture once cooked. Use a strainer or splatter guard to catch the rice grains when pouring if you don't want to lose rice grains. 

Soak the rice in cold water for a minimum of 5 hours at room temperature for up to overnight for best results. No longer than 24 hours, the rice will get too soft, the grains will start breaking, and you'll get mushy rice. 

Steam the rice. Fill the bottom of the steamer pot with enough water to steam rice for up to 20-25 minutes without the water drying out. You'll need anywhere from4-6 cups of water, depending on the size of your pot. The water level should be low enough not to let the bottom of the bamboo basket touch it. Allow 1-2 inches of space between the water and the pot. 

Wash, drain, and rinse the soaked rice last time to remove any excess starch before steaming. Then line the steamer with cheesecloth, and place the rinsed rice over the cloth. 

Wrap the cheesecloth around the rice, cover it, and we'll start steaming! Turn the stovetop to high heat and steam the rice for 15-20 minutes. 

 Check your rice 10-15 minutes into the steaming. (It's helpful to set the timer.) If the rice looks translucent and shiny, carefully take a small piece of cooked rice with a long fork or wooden spoon to see how it tastes. The steam is hot with boiling water, be careful.

The rice should be cooked on the el dente side but not crunchy. If you love it as it is, it's done! If not, cook for another 5-10 minutes. Carefully open the cheesecloth, then use a wooden spatula to stir the rice around to get it cooked evenly. Cover it back with the lid and return to cooking for a few more minutes until done. 

Turn the heat off, and remove the steamer from the stove. Fluff the rice again, and leave the cheesecloth open. Let it cool for a few minutes. Sprinkle a little salt on the rice if you prefer some. Discard the excess water in the pot.

Add some excitement to your dinner routine with Pineapple Shrimp Fried Rice! With succulent shrimp, tangy pineapple chunks, and a medley of colorful veggies, it's a delightful mix of sweet and savory in every bite!

Pineapple Shrimp Fried Rice Recipe

avocado oil oil

eggs,

lb. (26-30 count) shrimp, peeled and deveined

pineapple

red bell pepper, diced

garlic cloves,

soy sauce,

Sriracha,

lime, juiced

cilantro,

Kosher salt and fresh black pepper

Sesame oil, optional

In a large bowl, toss the shrimp with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 tsp. black pepper. Set aside.

In a large non-stick skillet or a large wok heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the whisked eggs and cook, stirring, until the eggs are scrambled and lightly set. Transfer to a plate and if necessary, wipe the skillet with a paper towel.

Increase the heat to a medium-high and add 2-3 tablespoons of oil. When the oil is hot, add the shrimp to the pan in a single layer. It should immediately sizzle on contact. Make sure not to overcrowd the shrimp. Cook for 1 minute per side. Transfer to a plate.

Add pineapple and bell peppers and cook undisturbed for 3 minutes. If necessary, add more oil to the pan. Stir the pineapple mixture and continue cooking for an additional 2 minutes. The pineapple should be caramelized and the peppers tender. Add green onions and garlic. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. 

Stir in rice and cook for about 1-2 minutes until heated through, while breaking up the rice with a spoon. Add soy sauce and Sriracha. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.

Stir in scrambled eggs and shrimp. Squeeze 1/2 lime juice over the rice and add chopped cilantro. Taste and if necessary, add more soy sauce, Sriracha, or lime juice.  Optional, add 1-2 teaspoons of sesame oil over the rice right before serving. 

This was such a delicious dish. I normally go for traditional fried rice but the addition of pineapple and Sriracha really made this recipe pop. Will definitely make it again!

Such a tasty recipe even though i used canned pineapple it still turned out good.
