If you have a pressure cooker, 1-1 water to Jasmine rice ratio, cooked on high pressure for 3 mins and natural release. Always wash the rice beforehand, repeatedly changing water, until the water run mostly clear.
Else before this I've only used a rice cooker, so I do not have a tip for a regular stovetop pot. :) Now I got to try out that Panang curry!
That food all sounds fantastic. I’m glad your husband and guests enjoyed it. I hope I will one day be able to eat slightly spicy food again! But one step at a time. How far along are you in Slow Dance? I have it on audio and got bored quickly, but maybe I should give it another chance, especially now I’m feeling better about everything. Having no pain makes such a difference to my outlook on so much. I’m interested in the comedian you mention and Anora sounds great. We are watching The New Look on Apple TV, it somehow keeps us watching despite some pretty bad acting (the actor playing Christian Dior, bless him, is so wooden) and the silly faux French accents. Why not do it in French and then dub it into English ? Anyway it must be ok as we are still watching! We often give up if we don’t get into it. I guess the story of Coco Chanel / Dior with the WW2 background makes it more engaging. So many of those detective stories or gang violence turn me off immediately!
I’ve wondered about The New Look. It kind of looked interesting and I’ve put it on my list. I’m reading Slow Dance alongside another book called How To Be Old, a memoir by Lyn Slater which is so interesting. She talks about how she accidentally became a fashion icon in her 60s. I’ll write about it soon. But anyway, reading two books at once means both of them move along slowly.
I enjoyed your honest storytelling, from trying new recipes to sharing reactions to films, which brings everyday moments to life and reminds me to keep an open perspective. Thanks, Ingrid

Thank you, Rachel!! I’m determined for it to become as easy for me as making Basmati is.
