👨🍳 Instrucciones
- 1
Combine rice, coconut milk, water, bruised lemongrass stalk, bay leaves, and salt in a medium saucepan or rice cooker pot. Stir gently to combine.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 2
If using a saucepan: Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover tightly, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender. Avoid lifting the lid during this time.
⏱️ 25-30 minutes - 3
If using a rice cooker: Follow your rice cooker's instructions for cooking white rice. Add all ingredients to the rice cooker pot and select the appropriate setting.
⏱️ 25-30 minutes - 4
Once the rice is cooked and the liquid absorbed, let it rest, covered, off the heat for 5-10 minutes. This allows the steam to distribute evenly.
⏱️ 5-10 minutes - 5
Remove the lemongrass stalk and bay leaves. Gently fluff the rice with a fork or rice paddle until it is light and separated.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 6
Serve the fragrant Nasi Uduk hot, accompanied by your choice of Indonesian favorites such as fried chicken, crispy fried tempeh, hard-boiled eggs, fried anchovies, a dollop of spicy sambal, and fresh cucumber slices.
