This is one of my all time favourite all-in-one rice cooker recipes. As you can see from the recipe, as well as the video above, it is super simple to prepare and only requires two ingredients – three, if you count water. It’s great as a porridge in the morning or as a dessert later in the day.

Any tips on making this with brown rice? And I only have a basic rice cooker, would that work fine?
Hi Edward,
I usually make it with white rice just so that it’s more mushy but brown rice is fine too. Give it a bash and let me know what you think
This looks fantastic. I may have for breakfast and dessert. Thanks
This is my all time favourite rice cooker recipe. Good for any time of day!
