Maybe I like the misery
Maybe it's the rice that's the problem with some people - Basmati is the only rice for me
Hooorah! I have discovered the secret to cooking rice!

Agreed. Too many overcook basmati so that it loses that slightly nutty crunch.
Tend to keep a big sack of basmati for most uses and some smaller containers of jasmine and broken rice for Thai food in particular. Add to that some kind of risotto rice, arborio usually and some wild rice.

have you tried jook/congee tarannau?
My gran used to cook me Rice Chook, which is basically the Guyanese bastardisation of the stuff. Used to love it as a nipper - generally it used to have some minced pork in there and be perfect slurping food.
Never cooked it myself. Uncle Chineeman (got to love the Guyanese PC terms for our family) is supposed to show me how, but I've never got round to it as yet. Half tempted to cook any old congee recipe, but I suspect it won't be half as good as my gran's.
Any good recipes or advice?

check this one out - http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Cantonese-Lean-Pork-Congee/Detail.aspx
so you had rice porridge as a kid? that's pretty good - defo a cultural (and a nostalgic) thing. i had mine mainly with strips of lean pork, preserved duck eggs - similar to the recipe above.
if you're around central, check out this place, it's pretty good value and their jook is nice.
