thanks sarah. Wasn't sure whether I would have to add anymore water to it.
Husband always frowns when I stick leftovers in the freezer!It's not WHAT you know, it's WHO you know0 -
Just as with pasta dishes they can go a bit solid once defrosted and reheated. Add a bit more water or sauce once hot if it looks a bit dry. HTHLife's a beach! Take your shoes off and feel the sand between your toes.0

this is great news as I ahve often wondered this myself. Risotto can be a fiddle, so it's good to know that if i spent time making one big batch, I can reheat any leftovers that I have frozen.
Thanks

I find home cooked rice comes out of the freezer with a grainy coating, any tips on what I am doing wrong please? I love risiotto but don't make it very often as I can't get it to freeze well, as r.mac says it can be a faff to make for just one meal.Post Natal Depression is the worst part of giving birth:p

When you have cooked the rice rince it with cold water before leaving it to cool. This removes the starch build up which is probably what the coating is.
