| Chinese name: 米饭 (mǐ fàn)
Rice is the commonest staple food on the dining table in most areas of China. A bowl of rice can go with all sorts of dishes, supplying almost all of the nutrition the human body needs. Its constituent is carbohydrate and the composition of the amino acids in it is relatively complete, which makes it very easy for the body to digest and absorb. |  |
Methods: |  Step 1: Pick a certain amount of dry rice and wash it well in a soup bowl or a basin (usually 1 bowl of dry rice can be cooked into 1.5-2 bowls of cooked rice.). |
 |
| Step 2: Pour the cleaned rice into the electric rice cooker and add in some water until the rice is fully immersed in (the proportion of the rice and the water is usually 1:1.2). Turn on the power. Cover and steam it for about half an hour when the Indicator lamp indicates you that the rice is ready. |
 |
| Step 3: Turn off the Power. Pick it out of the cooker and serve it in a bowl. |

The face-to-face cooking class of learning to cook Chinese rice, dumplings and Braised Pomfret made the home visit even exceptional.
