well, i followed the recipe and it was delicious! however, at the end it looked like a mixed rice, not a rice cake, what do you think is the problem?!
Thanks!

nooshe jan!
I think you should cook that longer until bottom of pan turn a crisp crust! maybe it will good if you set stove or oven in a higher
temprature at the end and add some oil and let it fry for a few minutes( but be careful and do not burn it)
by the way thanks for your comment.
wow! Thanks for the recipe!
Can I use long grain rice or jasmine rice?
You are very welcom!
you can use any kind of rice and jasmin rice also would be fine.
I prefer to use Basmati(Royal) rice most of times;)
Thanks for your response. I will try your suggestion next time. I was wondering if that could also be because I didn't use enough egg? I used one egg for about ~4 cups of rice.
