Cooking Tips

• Use short-grain rice for the best results, as it will become stickier and creamier.
• Stir the rice occasionally while cooking to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
• You can add a pinch of turmeric powder to the rice while cooking to give it a yellow color.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover Kiribath can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• To reheat, steam the Kiribath or microwave it with a splash of water to prevent it from drying out.
• Serve Kiribath with Lunu Miris as a breakfast dish or as a side dish with curries and sambols.
