Many recipes are done entirely in a rice cooker however, some require the additional use of a pan. The recipes which require this are clearly labelled. Whilst rice cookers are very good at a bunch of cooking types there are certain stages of cooking where you simply cannot replace a stove with a pan (such as searing meat and roasting vegetables etc).
After pirchase the ebook will be available in your account section of our website (please make sure to create an account when ordering this book type).
Click on the ‘WHAT’S IN THE BOOK’ tab below to get a concise list of what you will be getting in the book.
We give a lot of background information to using rice cookers along with tips, tricks and invaluable guides to rice and how to cook it. Don’t worry! We aren’t going to give you pages and pages of boring text on why we love rice and rice cookers. We give you information you will need and not an epic saga.
Please take our recipes as a guide and not as a hard rule on how you should cook something. Feel free to experiment with quantities and ingredients. Remove things you don’t like. Add things you do. Too many people think that a recipe has to be followed word for word – it doesn’t!

You love rice and need some inspiration to get cooking? This cook book covers the most popular rice dishes using a variety of grains and techniques along with some extra treats. When cooked correctly, rice on it’s own can be delicious. Add good rice to your favourite main meal and it instantly becomes more interesting.
This book is about making great, simple and tasty food with the help from a rice cooker but the recipes can be made using normal everyday tools in a kitchen such as pots and pans. We would, however, advise that to get the best from your rice and the recipes in this book, having a good rice cooker would be helpful. Note that some recipes included are dishes that complement perfectly cooked rice but are not necessarily cooked in a rice cooker, some are dishes that are made in a rice cooker and some are made in a rice cooker and a normal stove. Remember that whilst rice cookers are good at cooking rice they can’t always do two things at once!
We take you on a journey through a world of flavours from Indian dals to spicy, sweet and savoury Thai dishes to Chinese favourites and the sushi shores of Japan. We explore Mexican and Brazilian dishes, some European favourites, Middle Eastern delights and everything in between. Along the way we give guidance, tips, tricks and information on how to pair dishes with rice, how to elevate rice to a higher level and explain how rice should be eaten!
We include recipes for interesting desserts you can make in a rice cooker, yes desserts! Whilst rice cookers are very good at cooking rice (surprise!) the way that they operate means that they are also good at cooking specific key dishes that are more than just rice. We show how these can give variety to your cookery skills. Finally, we give interesting facts about rice, rice cookers, grain guides and other useful information to help you on your journey to a healthier way to eat!

J’essaie quelques recettes dans ce livre de cuisine et mon mari apprécie ma cuisine.
Verified owner G SIMMS (verified owner) –
Oh wow, so much more than rice recipies.
The book starts by saying that it’s made with love – I can tell! Also, whilst aimed at rice cookers, a saucepan will do the job.
I am a novice cook, I love my Yum Asia Fuji rice cooker and wanted to use it more expansively. This book is lovely to look at (i have the pdf version but will move to hard copy next time I order from YA) – even at my level of (in)competence I can follow the clear instructions, and see what the finished meal should look like!
There is so much more than rice – I’m loving the “how to make your own spice/ flavouring instead of using shop bought mixes” bit, and the full meals using the slow cooker functions.
recipes are graded from simple to hard – but I am confident that I will be able to follow even the “hard” ones. Feel an urge to buy a wok now, to make it completely authentic
Derek H (verified owner) –
Surpisingly good. Got the download straight to my Samsung tablet withing seconds. Good quality photos of the recipes. I’ve tried the frittata, the egg fried rice and the lemon chicken and all were a delight. Honestly, it’s a bargain for this price. I would have paid a lot more and thinking to get the paperback for my collection.
