Colourful Beetroot Rice

I got this beetroot and I throw it into the rice cooker to cook with the rice. The colour from the beetroot had made the rice so beautiful. I didn’t add any salt to it, so I can choose to mix with homemade Vegetarian Furikake (combination of Vegetarian Salted Fish, Aonoriko Seaweed and Black and White Sesame Seeds). I just garnish it with mint leaves and Vegetarian Floss. This should appeal to little kids too. What about the cooked beetroot, I used them to make a Beetroot and Banana Soymilk Shake, in this way, I save time and energy.

Preparation: 10 mins, Cooking time: 15 mins

Ingredients (serves 2)
° 200g rice, washed and drained
° 400ml water
° 1 (125g) beetroot, peeled and halved

Method
1. Combine all the ingredients into an electric rice cooker, mix well and turn it on.
2. When done leave the cooked rice to rest, covered, for 5-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and serve hot.
