As you know, you can't spoil porridge with butter.

This is true. Any cereal will become more tender and aromatic if you add a little oil to the pan after cooking. Rice is no exception.

But what oil is best to add to rice?

As chefs note, if we are talking about milk porridge, then it is better to use butter as an addition.

But it's important not to overdo it.

For one glass of rice, 50 grams of this ingredient will be enough, which means that for a kilogram of cereal you will have to spend up to 230 grams of the product.

If we are talking about serving rice as a side dish, then 115-120 grams per kilogram is enough.

If the porridge is cooked in water, then more attention should be paid to the main dish.

If vegetables are served as a side dish, olive or sesame oil will be a great choice. For meat or fish, it is better to choose sunflower oil.
