When making rice recipes, there is a slight possibility that sometimes the rice end up half cooked while the water is all absorbed. This may happen if the heat is not distributed evenly to the vessel. In that case, please don't add any more water as that will result in mushy textured rice which we don't want.The perfect solution for this under cooked rice in rice recipes is to heat an iron skillet or pan and keep the closed rice pan inside the heated iron skillet and cook in medium heat for few more minutes until all rice cooked enough.Just check in between and stir occasionally to encourage even cooking and just to make sure the rice is not getting burnt from overcooking. Serve hot curry rice as it is or serve with yogurt, raitha, chutneys or any side dish as you wish!
