- Can I freeze this dish? Yes, once it has completely cooled you can pack into zip top freezer bags packed flat to save space and expel all the air. This will keep for a month in the freezer. Thaw it completely and microwave is as described above.
- How can I make this recipe in a rice cooker? Gather all the ingredients then sauté the minced shallots in a pan until translucent. Add the shallots to the rice cooker. Add the rest of the ingredients into the rice cooker, set for white rice if your unit has a setting for white or brown rice then start. Simple!
