From My Rasoi #6 - For the Love of Rice

Meena of Hooked on Heat has decided to have her fellow food bloggers share the hosting duties of her monthly From My Rasoi (FMR) event.

‘Rasoi’ means ‘Kitchen’ in Hindi. A place where most of us spend a great deal of time making things that would feed and comfort our loved ones and ourselves. The Indian kitchen never closes down, there is always something cooking up (literally)!

The hosting duties include coming up with a theme for the event. With that in mind, my subject matter for this month’s FMR event is: RICE.

Rice is global and versatile. Almost everyone eats it – vegans, vegetarians, and meat eaters; even those suffering from celiac disease (gluten intolerant). One can also use rice flour as well as the grains.

So, let’s see what you come up with for this rice theme.

Meena’s rules:
1. You can concentrate on Indian or non-Indian flavors. Food should be enjoyed in any form. So take your pick and cook up anything! Anything you want! No barriers, no conditions, no limits!!!

2. All you have to do, is come up with a recipe to share based on the announced theme. It can be anything and in any form, shape or size, sweet, savory or even drinks! Special points shall be given to those who share a story with their recipe. Is there a childhood memory attached, a family tradition, or just something you associate with, whatever it is, we want to hear about it!

3. E-mail me (pazcooks AT yahoo.com) the link to your post by the last Friday of the month (June 30, 2006), and I will post a write-up of all the entries.
