  1. How do you get brown rice to cook in 20 minutes? I was skeptical but I followed the recipe times given. The rice was still tough at 20 minutes and by the time it was cooked the veggies were mush.

    1. Sharon, If you used long grain brown rice, not the quicker version, it will take closer to 40 minutes, maybe longer. I like Uncle Ben’s because it has been parboiled and cooks in around 20 minutes.

  2. I made this a couple days ago. I subbed the brown rice for basmati. Came out perfect, will make this again! I even threw a couple pistachios on top! So good..5 stars
