Fast, colorful, healthy – that's what the rice pan scores

A rice pan is perfect for fans of fast food: it is quick and easy to make and, above all, healthy with lots of crunchy vegetables. Their diverse ingredients conjure up color on the plate and make the rice pan the ideal family meal.

The rice pan is known and popular around the world and is prepared in a wide variety of ways. They are often known from Asia. The Chinese or Indian rice pan is mostly made with Asian vegetables – sprouts, bamboo, spring onions – and other ingredients. Turmeric in particular is popular as a spice because it not only ensures a delicious taste, but also gives the rice a great yellow color – such as in the popular rice pan Nasi Goreng. But curry is also suitable to refine the taste of the rice pan. It is typical of the Asian preparation that the vegetables are only seared briefly and spicy. This keeps it nice and crisp and less vitamins are lost. However, when frying the rice you always have to make sure that the pan is not too hot and there is some liquid, otherwise the rice will become hard and dry.

Everyone loves rice pans – from paella to Serbian rice pans

But the rice pan is also part of regional cuisine in other countries, such as in Serbia. The Serbian rice pan contains a lot of meat, which is typical of dishes from the Balkan countries. Minced meat and bacon are combined with simple vegetables such as peas, carrots and corn.

If you like it easier, combine the rice pan with chicken or make it vegetarian right away. There are no limits to creativity with the rice pan. Whether Mexican with beans and corn, autumnal with mushrooms or as Spanish paella – a rice pan can be combined with everything from vegetables and meat or seafood and is therefore also well suited for the utilization of leftovers.
