The hot word in the circle of friends recently is working lunch. Because of the epidemic, it is inconvenient to eat in class and take out food. Bringing meals has become the best choice for office workers, and my husband is no exception. For more than a month, I have been preparing breakfast every morning and cooking the lunch he wants to take away.

Office workers, especially men, need a nutritious, healthy and rich working lunch, and they have to change their tastes every day and can't repeat it. It has become the main direction of my food research in recent days to match the working lunch reasonably, nutritionally and deliciously, and help to reduce fat and weight.

During this period, a working lunch prepared for her husband, a brown rice and a low-fat A Auto Fast home-cooked dish mixed with various ingredients are balanced in nutrition, healthy and low in fat, simple and delicious, which is the most basic standard.

For example, the above picture shows three-color brown rice with cucumber and fungus fried chicken breast, and the following picture shows brown rice with double fried black pepper steak. There is a good combination of meat and nutrition to ensure that he can eat enough without worrying about long meat. The staple food is mainly coarse grains, and the meat is mainly high in protein and low in fat. These lunches spread to the circle of friends, and many friends praised me and stared at the brown rice in my lunch box.

We are familiar with this kind of brown rice, which has always been a recommended nutrient in the field of fat reduction. Brown rice is whole-grain rice which is obtained by hulling rice with little or no processing. It consists of rice bran, embryo and endosperm. Compared with the white rice we usually eat, brown rice has achieved a high degree of retention of total nutrition of rice. Steamed rice with brown rice has strong satiety, low calorie and is rich in dietary fiber, vitamins and minerals. Regular consumption helps to promote intestinal peristalsis, reduce flatulence and improve constipation. It is no problem to replace polished rice with it, as long as it is not eaten in excess.

However, the taste of brown rice has been criticized because of little or no processing. In fact, there is not only one kind of brown rice. Black rice and Redmi are also brown rice in a certain sense. The mixture of Redmi, black rice and brown rice is called tricolor brown rice. Cooking with them is much more delicious than cooking with a single kind of brown rice.

Because it was just the beginning to replace white rice with brown rice, I was afraid that my family would not adapt, and I added rice, so that four kinds of rice were mixed together, which not only ensured low nutrition and low fat, but also made it easier for my family to accept this new staple food. Let's see how I do it!

Tricolor brown rice

Raw materials: 70 grams of brown rice, 70 grams of Redmi, 70 grams of black rice, 70 grams of rice, and appropriate amount of water;

Recipe making process:

Step 1: Prepare four different kinds of rice with the ratio of 1: 1. The amount in the recipe is suitable for 3-4 people, and it can be reduced proportionally if there are few people;

Step 2: Mix the four kinds of rice together, simply rinse them, put them into the rice cooker, and add a proper amount of water. Brown rice is harder and more resistant to cooking, and the amount of water put is more than the usual amount of water stewed with white rice;

It should also be noted that if the rice cooker has the function of "brown rice", it will take a long time, so it can be directly used to stew brown rice. If there is no "brown rice" function, the time for stewing rice is short, so it is necessary to soak the rice for more than half an hour before stewing to ensure that the brown rice is cooked and softened, and the taste will be better.

Step 3: My rice cooker has the function of "brown rice", so I directly used the function key of the rice cooker. After the rice cooker stopped working, I opened the lid, which was especially delicious.

Brown rice is ready, with clear particles and moderate hardness, especially the newly cooked hot brown rice, which is especially delicious.
