Yeah I did mix them and went down reasonably well with family .... probably we had it with a big pot of unhealthy chicken curry...:)<br /><br />Actually the point was trying to make was that whole grains are not that easy to come by, and end up being more expensive. I think NTUC should see about importing whole grains in economy packs.<br /><br />Anyway, nice to see you back. Kinda missed you.:)gigamolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18328852130774608540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6125857314165645951.post-85151099169003539222009-10-12T21:17:46.446-07:002009-10-12T21:17:46.446-07:00Giga, you forgot to add that unpolished rice etc t...Giga, you forgot to add that unpolished rice etc takes more time n water to cook...<br /><br />One way to get around such things as cost per kg is to mix the grains; that way, probably more palatable for those used to finely polished grains.<br /><br />Eat more raw veggies and even rolled oats (yup, u don't need to cook them; just treat them like nuts by putting a small handful into yr mouth, or into a very hot drink -- that way, semi-cooked).<br /><br />Lastly, use no oil for cooking: u save on oil n washing detergent money. <br /><br />I do tt by cooking over slow, low heat, using well seasoned (ie well used) pots n pans without teflon. All raw ingredients have natural oils n/or juices and low heat brings them out, without burning.auntieluciahttp://singaporegirl.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
