Taro Rice

My maid is on 4 weeks vacation in Philippines (luckily she'll be back next week), so the lazy mum and a person not so into cooking the 3 meals of the day (see my profile) had to improvise and get the meals done nicely, easily and of course hassle free.

My mum has given me several suggestions when I spoke to her last week and this is one of them - one pot rice cooker taro rice. My mum is a great cook who loves marketing and cooking. However, my sisters and I did not pick up her skills when we were at home but now I'm collecting some of her famous and delicious recipes. Mothers of her time always cook via the agaration method,so sometimes it is not easy to follow her recipes.

Anyway, the rice cooker taro rice was quick, easy and delicious. Thank you, mum!

Hi Florence,
I've read your blog for about 2 months and I must compliment you on the details of the recipes both in words and in photographs.

This Taro Rice looks absolutely scrumptious... with so many requests already, when will you post the recipe? Perhaps, you can email the recipe to me? Thank you.
