Help Needed - Overcooked Rice!

Please, please can anyone help me?
I made a huge pan of long grain rice in my pressure cooker tonight - put too much water in, forgot to reduce pressure and keep an eye on it and it has resulted in a load of sticky, mushy overcooked rice. :cry:
Luckily, I had some more rice in the cupboard so our dinner wasn't totally ruined but now I really don't know what to do with this huge pot of 'mush'.
I've been really good the past few months converting our family to OS so I am loath to just bin it (even though it probably only amounts to pennies).
Any ideas would be gratefully received.
Thank you.

    Add some egg to it and use it to make a case for a flan type dish
    Add even more stock and boil up e=to make a congee - a sort of rice porridge.

  • Ohhh, the flan case is an interesting idea. I might try to give that a go...just have to find a filling recipe now :)
    Thank you.

    Keep going with some milk, cream and sugar and make rice pudding.
  • I was wondering about rice pudding (cause there's LOADS of rice). But as I salted the cooking water - would this work?

    I had something in India which I am told is a japanese thing - Okayo - which seemed to be mushy rice in salted water, consistency of a very sloppy rice pud.
    I had green tea with rice in it a few times after reading the book about the woman who lived as a Geisha, I felt positively hyperactive!
