We bought a new rice cooker because a small but important plastic thing to arrest the inner lid broke off the old one. It is still usable but slightly more cumbersome. The new one is tiny so we are keeping the old machine for the days when we are more than three people.
At first I had trouble understanding some of the instructions in the manual and to get the buttons to do what I wanted them to do but in the end we got some absolutely perfectly cooked basmati rice out of it. Better than cooked in a saucepan, that really means something! I will try it with Japanese rice on Friday.
With the rice we had something called Kadhaz’ Paneer Palak, or at least a vegetarian approximatation of it: a tomato and red onion based sauce with a few vegetables. I didn’t have fresh spinach and substituted with fresh roquette. There was also no paneer but what is known as Grillkäse (BBQ cheese) over here works just fine. I added chickpeas and a few leftover fried mushrooms. The sauce produced by following the recipe is really flavourful, I love it, despite the fact that I always have to sneeze when dealing with chillies and black pepper. 😅

My version is based on a recipe that I found in my Vegan Richa cookbook but I adapted it to my needs.
