The Yummy Scoop

Delicious Rice Cake

This rice dish is absolute genius, as it is filled with the most juicy ingredients ever! I love rice and I love to cook these kinds of dishes, so when I discovered it, I was ready for a picnic. Here is how to put this yummy dish together.

  • 2 onions
  • 12 teaspoon tumeric
  • 2 lbs boneless chicken breasts cubed
  • 1 lb low fat plain yogurt 
  • 1 teaspoon saffron, dissolved in 1/2c hot water
  • 2 eggs
  • 12lbs basmati rice or 1 1/2 lbs long grain rice
  • 3 cups water
  • 12cup cooking oil
  • 2 teaspoons salt 
  • black pepper (to taste)
  • Chop onions and fry in oil until slightly golden then add the turmeric to it. Fry chicken in onions until color changes. Add 1/2 – 1c water and bring to boil. Turn heat down and let boil slowly until chicken is cooked.
  • While chicken is cooking, mix the yogurt until it is smooth. Dissolve saffron in half a cup of hot water. Add saffron, salt, pepper and optional eggs to the yogurt and mix very well.
  • Wash rice and pour 3c water in a large pot and bring to boil. Pour in rice and cook while stirring occasionally until rice is al dente. Drain. (Basmati will cook a lot quicker than regular rice).
  • Pour several spoons of oil and several spoons of the yogurt mix into a non-stick pot. Add a thin layer of rice and flatten using the back of a spoon. Add a layer of chicken on top followed by another layer of rice. Again flatten the rice. Spread several more spoons of the yogurt mix on the rice. Continue in this fashion until chicken, rice and the yogurt mix have been used up. Add some more oil on top.
  • Put the lid on and cook for about 1.5 hours on medium low heat. Note that the longer it is cooked, the thicker the delicious crispy layer of rice at the bottom will be. When cooked, remove the lid and let cool for a few minutes. Place an inverted large dish over the pot and turn it over. Tap the pot in order to loosen the contents inside. The contents should fall on the dish in one piece with the rice on the outside.

The rice dish is super yummy!
