Just put your rice instead of what it says. I've done this many times. It turns out tastier! And now I always do this =)

Digested rice can be used to prepare liver pancakes - you will get a complete second course.

For a kilogram of liver you will need 200 g of rice, 2 onions, 3 chicken eggs, a tablespoon of flour, salt and pepper to taste and vegetable oil for frying. The liver, cleared of films, must be passed through a meat grinder, along with the onion, then add boiled rice (not necessarily overcooked, but overcooked is fine), eggs, a spoonful of flour, salt and pepper to taste. Mix the whole mass thoroughly. Fry the pancakes as usual - in vegetable oil on both sides until cooked, spooning the mixture into the pan using a tablespoon.

Once, when making pancakes, I used a blender rather than a meat grinder. I whipped all the ingredients together (including the rice itself - in this case I didn’t even add flour, since the resulting liver mass was quite thick enough) - the child liked these pancakes even more.

Just a bowl of rice? No matter how it is!

In our family, rice rightfully takes an honorable first place. For his livable character. It is able to create a harmonious pair with almost any other component, while becoming salty, sweet, spicy, and fresh.

And how nutritionists and weight loss consultants love rice! A week on rice boiled in four waters without salt - and a few centimeters are gone (however, it turns out to be a rare nasty thing, after two days it simply doesn’t work anymore, and it’s harmful to lose weight so suddenly).

Conventionally, rice can be divided into water rice (cooked in water) and milk rice (cooked in milk).

If you have leftover milk rice porridge, then the best recipe is to pour jam on top and feed it to the children, naming it for added importance. rice pudding.

Although, it might be better not to name it, so that it doesn’t turn out like Alice in Wonderland, who couldn’t eat the pudding after they were introduced to each other.

"Water" rice can also be:

White viscous

White crumbly

Colored viscous

Colored crumbly

By the way, “milk” rice can also be colored if you throw in a couple of spoons of cocoa. My eldest daughter proudly called this porridge “chocolate”.

Any "water" rice has two uses: it can be reheated, or it can be used as a base for another dish.

Warming up.

A couple of years ago I discovered an extremely simple way to reheat all side dishes cooked in water. It is enough to add a little water to the pan with cereal or pasta and wait for it to evaporate over medium heat. Heating in a frying pan always leaves the feeling of reheated food, and with such express cooking the side dish turns out “piping hot.”

The basis for another dish.

Depending on your taste preferences and accompanying ingredients, you can get a huge variety of dishes.

White sticky rice

This rice can be used to make wonderful homemade rolls and kutya - sweet rice with raisins and honey.

For homemade rolls you need layers of seaweed (sold in any supermarket). Rice is applied in a thin layer to the layer, while a couple of centimeters at the end of the layer should be free to seal the roll. You can put it on top of the rice...

Yes, you can put anything! The main thing is to cut into thin strips. You can have any vegetables (cucumbers and sweet peppers are very good), mushrooms (fried), fish (salted). To some extent, Japanese rolls are very reminiscent of pizza: they seem to be made from leftovers, but they turn out extremely tasty.

Grease everything placed on the rice with mayonnaise, roll it into a tube (using a bamboo napkin), moisten the free edge with water and seal the roll, cut it into 6 pieces with a sharp knife. Ready! Pour in soy sauce, add wasabi (Japanese mustard, also sold in any supermarket), arm yourself with chopsticks (or, if you’re lucky, you can use a fork or just your hands), dip the roll into the sauce and enjoy the taste.

Speaking about sticky white rice, I would like to remind you of its wonderful property of retaining its shape. From such rice you can sculpt various animals, make balls, cubes, figures, which small and big children love very much. A simple snowman made from three rice balls or a mouse with large ears made from thin slices of an apple - any rice fantasy will be enjoyed, especially if the child himself takes part in the preparation.

And zealous housewives will certainly bake a couple of dozen delicious pies with rice and eggs or kulebyaku with meat, mushrooms or salmon.

In short, rice can easily find its rightful place and decorate any table.

Sometimes there is so much cooked rice that it is impossible to eat it in one evening. Then the balance goes to the next day. The remaining rice can be sticky or crumbly, white or colored, depending on the cooking method. Although most often they try to cook rice crumbly, but it turns out viscous either due to an oversight or on purpose, for example, for rolls.

White fluffy rice

Salad It can be anything, rice goes well with shrimp and crab sticks, fresh cabbage or lettuce, and canned fish. This salad turns out to be very fresh: rice, fresh cabbage, canned corn, crab sticks, mayonnaise.

To make white rice colored, You need to fry the grated carrots and finely diced onions in a separate frying pan. You need to fry until cooked, and then add rice to the vegetables and fry for about five minutes so that the rice absorbs the color.

The beauty of this method, in addition to the good idea of ​​​​using leftover rice, is that its final volume becomes almost twice as large due to vegetables, which means that there will be enough side dish for everyone, even if there is not much rice left (by the way, according to Initially, colored rice is prepared using the same method).

As additives Garlic (added at the very end), turmeric (seasoning), and curry (seasoning) have worked well with colored rice. Seasonings make the color of the rice even more yellow, and the dish looks very elegant and festive, and garlic fills it with a pleasant aroma.

Rice also loves to be heated in a frying pan where the chicken was previously fried. Of course, it turns out terribly harmful, but the taste of the rice becomes very deep.

Next option- combine the remaining rice with vegetables that are sold in frozen bags (beans, cauliflower, peas, corn, champignons). This method is good if there is an acute lack of time. It's ready in about 10 minutes, but it looks like you've been busy at the stove all evening.

Colored sticky rice

Heating sticky rice leads to even more disastrous results, so this rice should be mask other products. It is very good to combine it with corn, then you get a less viscous consistency due to the grains. If you're interested, you can also add green peas, although not everyone accepts them warm.

Colored fluffy rice

Colored, fluffy rice is much easier to sell than sticky rice. It can be reheated by adding water, or it can be used in a salad.

I recently discovered one more recipe sales of colored rice, quite exotic, I must say.

A regular salad is made from tomatoes, cucumbers, and red peppers. Colored rice (rice, carrots, onions) is added to this mixture, and then - attention! - a layer of seaweed for rolls is also added here. Just use your hands to tear off and place the pieces. The salad is poured with soy sauce, a little vegetable or olive oil and salt are added. It mixes and it turns out something like large crumbly roll. Due to seaweed and soy sauce, this salad tastes exactly like a vegetable roll, and pieces of seaweed in the salad look like olives. Here's a little optical illusion.

And these are only the simplest and most accessible Re-use recipes, which can always be complicated, supplemented and simply changed beyond recognition.
“The retinue makes the king” - the saying is exactly about rice. No matter how inexpressive and insipid single rice is, it becomes so rich and tasty in the presence of other fellow products. Experiment, and let your culinary fantasies always cause only delight!\

It is unlikely that any of us would want to taste over-salted soup or burnt porridge, boiled milk with a burnt aftertaste. But even venerable chefs and pastry chefs do not always turn out flawless ready-made dishes. And what can we say about us, simple housewives, trying to feed our family a delicious lunch, breakfast or dinner.

Alas, each of us does not always succeed in everything as we would like or as intended. Especially if you have to be torn between cooking, cleaning or doing laundry. And if there is also a small child in the house who requires constant supervision... In general, no one is immune from unpleasant moments. It's a shame, annoying, but not fatal.

If desired, some things can be corrected and supplemented. The main thing is not to despair and not be hysterical. So arm yourself with a pen and notepad, or a mouse and keyboard, and write down or copy. And when trouble does happen, stop, take a deep breath, remember that somewhere in your notebook or computer folder there were recommendations for such cases. And then, having used these recommendations in time, your failures in the kitchen will seem like just a trifle to you.

So, delve into how to save a failed dish:

What to do if you oversalt a dish?

The most common problem many housewives have is over-salting. So if you didn’t calculate the amount of salt and over-salted...

Soup

Do not rush to dilute it with water - this is not the best option in this case. You have more effective measures:

• wrap some rice in cheesecloth and dip it into the soup - during the cooking process, the cereal will absorb excess salt;
• add an additional portion of noodles or cereal - the soup will be thicker, but will not be too salty;
• pour the egg white into the pan, and after a while, catch it with a slotted spoon;
• dilute the soup with unsalted broth, if, of course, you have one;
• dip a potato tuber into the soup - it will absorb the salt;
• Alternatively, add a little sugar to the soup to cut out the excess salt.

Minced meat or fish

If you oversalt the minced meat, then add grated raw potatoes, or carrots, or zucchini, or boiled rice.

If you have over-salted your meat or fish

If you have oversalted the meat or fish, then add sweet and sour (made from tomato paste, onions and prunes) or flour sauce (made from water and flour) and simmer, covering with a lid.

Or you can use this product as a filling for pies by mixing it with some other ingredient. As a last resort, complement over-salted meat or fish with an unsalted side dish of rice, vegetables or potatoes.

If you oversalt the mushrooms

The best way to save a mushroom dish is with sour cream, which will “happily” absorb the salt. If you don’t have this fermented milk product on hand, you can replace it with a small amount of water and add a little lemon juice.

In the end, just mix the mushrooms with boiled unsalted rice or mashed potatoes.

Stewed vegetables that are too salty

Puree them, add unsalted broth and prepare a puree soup, adding sour cream or cream. Or boil an additional portion of vegetables, but without salt, and mix, thereby obtaining vegetable puree.

Over-salted fresh vegetable salad

Simply rinse the chopped vegetables under cold water and place in a colander to remove excess moisture. Or add more vegetables to the salad.

The most effective way to eliminate excess salt in any dish is to prepare an additional portion of it and mix it with the over-salted one. True, as a result, the volume of the dish will increase significantly.

How to fix a burnt dish?

If you're distracted and get burned...

Milk

Take another clean container, rinse it with cold water and pour the milk into it. Bring the milk to a boil.

If it has already become saturated with the smell and taste of burning, take a thick cloth, fold it in at least two layers and strain the milk through it several times. Remember to rinse the fabric under hot water after each straining. Now all that remains is to boil the milk one more time and you can use it for its intended purpose.

How to fix a burnt pasta, grain or vegetable dish

Transfer the product to be prepared into a clean bowl without touching the burnt layer, and continue the cooking process by adding fresh butter, milk or water. If the pasta or cereal has a burnt smell, rinse it with cold water and then place it in a clean bowl to finish cooking.

If dough dishes are burnt - baked goods

If baked goods are burnt, remove the thin burnt layer from buns, pies or cookies using a grater. A thick layer of burnt dough will help you remove it with a sharp knife. If part of the sponge cake is damaged during baking, cut off the burnt areas and cover them with cream, jam, glaze, powder or jam.

If fish or meat dishes are burnt

If a meat or fish dish is burnt, cut off the burnt crust with a knife and, transferring the salvaged product into a clean container, simmer by adding water, broth or sauce.

How to save dry meat?

If the meat becomes dry and tough during cooking, do not rush to throw it in the trash. All is not lost yet.

It can be saved in several ways:

1) grind it with a blender or cut it into very small thin pieces, and, after frying with spices, use it to make sauce or gravy, filling for pancakes or casseroles;

2) cut very thinly and soak for at least half an hour in a marinade of soy sauce and vegetable oil with the addition of chopped garlic, herbs and some seasonings. Such meat can be used to prepare salads or snacks;

3) pour the sauce of sour cream and onion or sour cream and tomato over the meat and simmer for 20 minutes. It will become soft again.

What to do with excess fat?

Dishes prepared in large amounts of oil or fat (deep-fried) - pies, chips, meat or vegetables in batter - become oily and harmful to health. Remove excess fat by blotting the finished product with paper towels.

To remove the resulting layer of fat on the surface of a liquid dish (soup), wait until it cools, then carefully scoop off the excess fat with a spoon.

How to fix overcooked rice?

If you are lazy and overcook the rice for a side dish, drain the excess water from it, transfer it to a colander and rinse thoroughly under water. Add the resulting mass with mushrooms or onions and fry in oil - you get a completely edible dish.

Or make zrazy or cutlets from it - that’s also a good option.

Well, that's probably all. Remember and record for yourself everything described above. But it’s better to be careful when preparing food, try not to leave the kitchen for a long period. Let your dishes always turn out successful and tasty!

All the best!
