Wholemeal Black/Brown Rice
 

Whole grain versions of black venus or regular rice and brown rice retain all their nutritional value, including fibre, B vitamins and minerals. Whole grain rice takes about 35-45 mins to cook, depending on variety (Beware some quick-cook versions – they are part-milled and thus stripped of some fibre and nutrients). You will really enjoy the taste, texture, versatility and health benefits of black venus/brown rice.  Brown rice is especially soothing for the digestive and nervous system. The Japanese eat it when sick, as its healing powers are part of their folklore. (Pre-soaked rice will cook 5-10 minutes faster)
Ingredients1 part wholemeal black venus/ brown rice
2 ½ parts boiling salted water
Dash of oil

Maggie’s Tip:
  • Add bacon, prawns, chicken, eggs, pork, bamboo shoots, bok choy, chinese cabbage, carrots etc.
  • Black venus rice should not be confused with the Chinese black sticky rice (often known as forbidden rice, this is not a whole grain rice).
