Glutinous rice, chicken and vegetables are gently cooked in coconut milk to make bringhe, a dish associated with festive tables in the Philippines. Made in a large pot with economical ingredients, this rice dish is a classic main course for a crowd.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Sear the chicken

10 min

Sear the chicken leg pieces in olive oil for 10 minutes, until browned on all sides, then set aside.

2

Sauté the vegetables

8 min

Sauté the chopped onion, garlic cloves and red pepper in the same pot until softened.

3

Add the rice and coconut milk

7 min

Stir in the glutinous rice, coconut milk, turmeric and salt, then return the chicken to the pot.

4

Cook over low heat

25 min

Cover and cook over low heat for 25 minutes, until all the liquid has been absorbed.

5

Add the peas and serve

5 min

Stir in the peas and remove from the heat. Leave to rest for 5 minutes, then stir and serve.

Reminder

Do not overcrowd the pot when searing the chicken, or it may steam rather than brown; cook it in two batches if needed. Glutinous rice can stick to the bottom, so stir it frequently as it cooks.

Tavuk but yerine tavuk göğsü kullandım, pişirme süresini kısaltmak gerekti çünkü göğüs eti daha çabuk kurudu. Yine de hindistan cevizi sütünün kremamsı tadı pilava çok yakıştı.

Zerdeçalı 1 tatlı kaşığı yerine yarım kaşık kullandım, renk daha açık sarı oldu ama tadı yine dengeliydi. Pişirme süresini 25 dakika yerine 30 dakikaya çıkarınca pirinç tam istediğim kıvama geldi.
