Rice Cooker Lao Sticky Rice
Sticky rice is a Lao staple, traditionally eaten by hand with a chewy, bouncy texture. This recipe uses a different method by making it effortlessly in an electric rice cooker.
Ingredients
- 3 cups sticky rice (rice cooker cup)
- 1-2/3 cup water (rice cooker cup)
Instructions
- 1
In the pot, add the sticky rice and enough water to cover it. Use your hands to mix the rice and rinse away excess starch. Repeat this process 3 times.

After draining, return the rice to the pot. For sticky rice, use a ratio of 1-2/3 cups of water for every 3 cups of rice to achieve the perfect texture—not too wet, not too dry. Be sure to use the measuring cup that comes with your rice cooker.
