IFBA and
Borosil sent me an amazing rice cooker and asked me to give it a try and write about it. I have never really used a rice cooker before and I was quite excited to see how the end product would turn out.
It's been 2 weeks since I have been using it and I can very happily say that this product has become an irreplaceable part of my kitchen. I cook my rice in this Borosil Digi Kook Rice Cooker and I'm always very happy that the rice is fluffy and perfectly cooked.
This rice cooker very chic and stylish. There are days when I get busy with my writing and can't worry about cooking. I just stick some ingredients in it and the end result always surprises me. The best part is that once the rice gets cooked this cooker switches to the 'Keep Warm' mode. My food is always warm when I want to consume it. I love how intelligent this machine is.
It isn't just a rice cooker though, I use it to steam my yoghurt, vegetables, dumplings and pudding. I even used it to make a delicious biryani. This product is apt not just for busy people but for housewives too. It makes life just that much simple.
In this blog post I'm sharing a biryani recipe made using this rice cooker. The preparation is very popular in my family and is usually cooked on dum.
Before I share the recipe and method, here's some details on the features of the Borosil's Digi Kook Rice Cooker.
