It was 1 cup basmati rice, 1/2 cup red lentils, 3 cups and a little extra water with plenty of home made curry powder, frozen bell peppers and chopped up baby carrots.

Came out good but a little underwhelming without sauce. I also made chole not pictured and ate it together.

      Yeah, I have an instant pot and an induction range so I have plenty of ways to cook rice to be sure. I got this to save time and because it is really easy to use so that my partner can use it without having to think too hard

        In what price range do you have to buy them to get a decent one?

          Cheap ones are fine, but spend at least 60€ if you want to have a quality nonstick layer. I got the bigger cuckoo one (Korean brand) for 80€ which has been working awesome for 4 years now. Never was rice stuck/burned in the pot.

          I got the absolute cheapest one I could and it works fine

      Normally yes, not this time. Was seeing how lazy I can be

    Lentils in the rice cooker is a good idea, I’ll be trying them out to use up my leftover lentils.

      It worked well, definitely added more substance to my rice. If you’re using brown lentils you ,ight want to microwave brown lentils in some water for a few minutes until softened or pre-soak them. Red lentils are actually split and skinned brown lentils so they cook way faster.

    Baby carrots are just chopped carrots, seems a bit wasteful to use those specifically in cooking

      They were on sale and I really don’t think it matters.
