Since the holidays are here, I decided to try something new, cooking rice! But what I'm actually aiming for is Bi Bim Bab rice! They taste really wonderful in those times I ordered them from the Korean shops, so I might as well try to make them in my room. So with the sauce and the short grain rice bought, i start..

Apparently it seems easier to wash these kind of rice than those i'm used to back home. 3 times of washing is enough but i spend like 5 times the last time. Maybe I'm more skilled liao haha! I understood the rice for bi bim bab is a bit wet, something like sushi rice. So instead of a cup of water for a cup of rice, i added slightly more water.

Then start cooking... all seems well until the bubbles got filled up to the rim! So i had to open the lid up when that happens in case the lid gets blown off! Dunno it will or not but if it happens, i'm too lazy to do anything other than vaccuum my room lolx! Bet it wouldn't be enough >.< .. Then the 'ingenious' thought, why not I leave the a very small opening instead. Ahhh.. no more oveflowing bubbles but the water gets dried up so fast!! So I added more la.. of cos hot water.. so the final result is...

Somewhere between porridge and rice lolx! Surprisingly sticky.. haihz. At least I din burn them on my first try!! Good job!! So I poured over some Bi Bim Bab sauce for some supper... and it turned out that it's 10 times hotter than the shop's bi bim bab!! Wa liao!! I called over Barney to make sure but he also said so hahahaha!! Seems like I can no longer pour the sauce like crazy as i used to in the shops =/

Next day, round 2... this time i remind myself to not bother adding water... and one thing extra!! Using miso soup as the water instead!! Wa hehe, i learnt this from iron chef.. wonder how it will taste like keke.

I cooked twice as much this time, since I'm quite hungry. While waiting for it to cook, i finally looked at the recommended recipe behind the rice package (^^)'
They say, "add binegar,sugar and salt into the rice". Wa liao, i dun have these stuff le... nevermind. The rice came out reasonably alike the shop rice, and it had taste(!) rather than bland rice (bleh). Then in the corner of my eye, I found vinegar!! Apple cider vinegar hahaha!! Dunno why i just poured in without thinking XD

And the vinegar covered the bi bim bab spiciness, now no longer so spicy liao.. but still got the taste!! So woohoo!! Nice job done, the next few runs to finetune it then it's ready for serving :)

Wish me luck ;p
