Do you want something interesting on the side? I suggest preparing a beautiful and healthy porridge, where buckwheat and rice along with vegetables are cooked in a frying pan. The dish turns out to be very interesting and tasty, and the multi-colored ingredients add bright colors to the finished dish. My simple recipe with step-by-step photos will tell you in detail how to cook rice with buckwheat in a frying pan.
Chop one medium onion and carrot and fry in vegetable oil. Carrots can be grated on a coarse grater or cut into strips by hand. Also, the side dish will look beautiful with carrot wheels. Today, as you can see in the photo, I am grating.
Add pepper to the fried vegetables. Remove seeds and cut half of the green bell pepper into strips. You can use pods of a different color, but the green color in this dish will be in better harmony with the colors of other vegetables. I used frozen product.
Cut one medium tomato into pieces, after cutting out the stem.
Fry the tomatoes and vegetables for 1 minute.
It's time to add the cereal. We take the ratio of rice and buckwheat 1:1, 100 grams each. If you count 200 gram glasses, then you will need half of each type of cereal.
Immediately add 2 cups (400 milliliters) of water and salt to taste.
After the liquid boils, reduce the heat to low, cover the pan with a lid, and simmer the side dish for 25 minutes.
Place the finished dish on plates and serve with any type of meat or fish.
For example, buckwheat with rice and vegetables is good if served as a side dish.
Rice and buckwheat, cooked together, are a universal side dish, and if you add vegetables to the cereal, then this porridge can be served as an independent dish. I am sure that after trying to cook this porridge once, such a side dish will become a frequent companion to your dishes.

Cooking buckwheat and rice takes approximately the same amount of time. That is why culinary specialists came up with the idea of combining these cereals in one dish. Even those who don’t like to eat porridge “in its pure form” like this recipe. It will also help out if there is very little grain left in the cupboard, but you need to prepare dinner for the whole family.

Step-by-step recipe for buckwheat-rice porridge
Rinse the grains. You can fill them with water separately, but it is more convenient to mix rice and buckwheat in one container, then start washing.
Peel the onions and carrots. Rinse the vegetables under cool water, finely chop or grate.
Melt a piece of butter in a frying pan. Fry the onion in it until translucent, then add the carrots to it. When a characteristic pleasant aroma appears in the kitchen, you can turn off the heat under the frying pan.
Pour water into a thick-walled saucepan. To prepare porridges, it is better to use a cast iron cauldron, this significantly improves the taste. Boil water, add buckwheat and rice.
Stir the grains in the pan once, add salt and spices. Reduce heat, simmer for 15 minutes.
Add the fried vegetables to the pan and stir again. Cover with a lid and turn off the heat. Let the dish sit for half an hour. Only after this can you remove the lid and scatter the porridge onto plates.
You can improve the taste of a dish using various additives and spices. Pour assorted mushrooms into the porridge, add minced meatballs or pieces of fried meat. Some people prepare sweet porridge “Friendship” with honey and dried fruits. Sometimes it is served with original sauces.
If you don't have time to prepare vegetables and other additions, you can make a quick version of porridge with water or milk. On its own, this dish may seem rustic, but when combined with meat or mushrooms, it makes an excellent side dish.

How to quickly cook buckwheat-rice porridge
Pour cold water over the cereal mixture. Let it sit for 15-20 minutes.
Place the pan on the stove and bring to a boil over medium heat.
Pour olive oil into the porridge or add a piece of butter. Cook until the liquid has completely evaporated, then remove the pan from the stove and cover with a lid. You can start tasting within 5-10 minutes after turning off the heat.
To make the dish even tastier, combine water and milk in equal proportions. In this case, you can not infuse the cereal, but immediately put the pan on the fire. This porridge goes well with vegetables and cheese. You can serve it with pieces of tomatoes and feta.
This recipe uses an assortment of champignons, oyster mushrooms and wild mushrooms. They combine perfectly with each other, giving the finished dish a unique taste and aroma. You can enhance it with seasoning or homemade dried mushroom powder.

Step by step recipe
In this recipe, the porridges are mixed with each other after cooking. You can cook them simultaneously or alternately. Be sure to rinse the grains with cold water before cooking.
Heat the buckwheat in a dry hot frying pan. When it is lightly fried, a pronounced aroma will appear. At this moment you need to salt the porridge and pour hot water over it. You can pour the buckwheat into a saucepan or cook it further in a frying pan; this will not affect the taste in any way.
Cook the buckwheat over high heat, covered, for five minutes. After this, you need to reduce the heat and cook for another 10 minutes. Remove the porridge from the stove, you can put a piece of butter in it.
Boil water in another saucepan, then place the washed rice in it. Add salt and cook covered over low heat for 15-20 minutes.
While the rice is cooking, peel and rinse all the mushrooms and onions. Cut these ingredients into equal sized cubes. Fry the onion in hot oil, then pour it into a plate.
Place mushrooms in a frying pan with aromatic oil and fry over high heat. After a few minutes, you need to salt them and add a pinch of basil. Instead of salt, you can use soy sauce, it will enhance the taste of the mushrooms.
It is not always possible to use fresh wild mushrooms. In this case, you can get by with dried chanterelles and boletus mushrooms. They need to be ground in a blender or coffee grinder.
Pour mushroom powder into a frying pan and add fried onions. Stir the contents of the pan and fry for a few more minutes.
Combine two types of porridge and fried mushrooms in one container. The dish is ready to eat; before serving, you can sprinkle it with herbs.
There are different options for preparing this porridge. For example, you can add cereal to the frying pan with fried mushrooms, then pour in water portionwise. Add a new portion of liquid only after the previous one has completely evaporated. In this case, you will get a kind of risotto.
Children especially like sweet porridge. It can be eaten for breakfast or instead of dessert. Thanks to spices, this dish acquires an original and rich taste. You can add a little pepper for spiciness, but this porridge is not suitable for everyone.

How to cook
Rinse two types of cereals, mix the grains. Place them in a pan of water. The ratio of buckwheat, rice and liquid should be 1:1:3.
Walnuts need to be chopped. Then mix them with dried fruits and spices.
When the water in the pan boils, pour the fruit and nut mixture into it, add butter, sugar and a pinch of salt. Cook the porridge for another 15 minutes.
Remove the pan from the heat, cover with a lid. Let the porridge steep for an hour. To keep it warm longer, you can wrap the pan in a blanket or towels.
If you don't like the rich taste of spices, you can soften it by adding a little more sugar. Instead, you can use liquid honey, or even condensed milk. Garam masala is sometimes added to this dish, but this spice mixture is not easy to find in regular stores.
To save time, you can cook porridge with pieces of meat or minced meat. In this case, you get a complete lunch that you can treat to any family member.

I discovered this porridge a long time ago, even before purchasing a double boiler. With the advent of a double boiler, the process became faster, and the porridge began to turn out more crumbly.
So, to prepare Druzhba porridge you will need: pork meat, onions, buckwheat, rice, salt, olive or vegetable oil.

Onion
After all the ingredients of our porridge are in the bowl, fill it with hot water in a ratio of 1:2. That is, we will need approximately 300 ml. water. Add salt and oil.
Place the bowl in the steamer and turn it on for 40 minutes. After about 20 - 25 minutes you need to stir the porridge, as sometimes the rice settles and the porridge turns out uneven. You can also add water if you see that the porridge is not cooked yet and there is not enough water.
The porridge turns out crumbly, but not dry. You can also add carrots to it, then it will be more interesting in color. You can eat it as an independent product, or with a cutlet or a light salad. I hope you also like this recipe and you will delight your loved ones with it more than once.

Housewives who have not lived in a country like the Soviet Union may have never heard of a porridge called “Friendship.” It was popular precisely in those distant times. It was always given for breakfast in kindergarten and summer pioneer camps. And mothers and grandmothers prepared this porridge for their children. After all, such a breakfast combined benefits and taste as much as possible.
Nowadays, many modern mothers give their children fashionable French croissants for breakfast or glazed cheese curds made from who knows what. And they themselves prefer to have breakfast on the go with sausage sandwiches and a cup of coffee. And we suggest you start your morning with health benefits. Today we have “Friendship” porridge on our menu, just like in kindergarten. The dish received such a beautiful and sonorous name due to the fact that it is prepared from different types of cereals, which are taken in equal proportions.
Usually they use two cereals, for example rice and millet. But don't be afraid to experiment! You can cook an even more “friendly” porridge, which includes several grains at once. As a rule, many of them require different cooking times, so you need to put them in the pan one by one:
First, pearl barley and corn (they take the longest to cook); then cereals with an average cooking time - barley, oatmeal, millet, rice, buckwheat, wheat; and at the end, cereals that cook very quickly (semolina, bulgur).
Get creative by adding dried fruits, pumpkin pieces, and nuts to the porridge; create new flavor combinations.
I would like to immediately warn you about washing millet. If you hear somewhere that you don’t need to wash millet cereals, as if it doesn’t affect anything, don’t believe it! If you do not wash the millet well, it will taste bitter when cooked. And milk porridge made from unwashed millet cereals will turn out tasteless and gray in color. Be sure, before cooking millet, carefully sort it out to remove debris and small pebbles, then pour it into a bowl and cover with warm water. Stir occasionally with your hand or a spoon, then drain the water and repeat the whole process again. This must be done 5-6 times until the drained water becomes completely transparent.
The same applies to other cereals; they require the same thorough washing.
For cooking, use pans with a double bottom, this will help prevent the boiling cereal from burning. If you have a household helper like a multicooker, you can safely cook milk “Friendship” in it. Porridge made from different types of cereals, cooked in a pot in the oven, is very good.
If you don't eat all the porridge at once, you can store it in the refrigerator for 48 hours. Before serving again, simply heat it in a water bath, in the microwave or in a frying pan with butter.
We invite you to make healthy and tasty “Friendship” from rice and millet; this composition is considered ideal. This porridge is best suited for the daily diet of children and the elderly. If the child is very small (under 1 year), additionally grind the finished porridge in a blender, it will become more tender and airy.
For those with a special sweet tooth, you can top this porridge with thin honey or condensed milk before serving.
Taste Info Second: cereals
Sort and rinse the millet thoroughly, then pour boiling water over it and leave in this state for about 10 minutes. After this time, drain the water and rinse the cereal again. Don't ignore this procedure!
At the same time, rinse the rice grains. The water after washing should also become completely clear. To prepare porridge, it is better to use round rice because it absorbs water better and cooks faster.
Both cereals for “Friendship” porridge are prepared, combine them together by transferring them to a saucepan. Fill the millet and rice with a large amount of water (the proportion is approximately 1 to 5, more is possible). A lot of water is needed so that it is not only absorbed during cooking, but also remains.
Place the pan with the cereal on the fire and bring the liquid to a boil. Boil until half cooked (this will take 7 minutes), then carefully drain the remaining water.
Pour the resulting mass of millet and rice with milk. If you want the result to be a thin porridge, then increase the amount of milk.
Add salt and sugar, stir.
Place the pan with the porridge on low heat, bring the milk to a boil and cook for 5-7 minutes.
To make the “Friendship” porridge made from millet and rice stewed, wrap the pan in a warm towel or blanket and leave it like that for about 40-50 minutes. The taste of the porridge will change noticeably.
When serving the finished dish to the table, add a piece of butter to each serving.
A tasty, satisfying and certainly healthy porridge made from two types of cereals - an excellent option for breakfast or a light dinner! Bon appetit!

We suggest you diversify the recipe a little by adding wheat cereal. It would seem that such a small thing, they added a handful of another cereal, and the taste of the finished porridge immediately changes, it turns out softer and more boiled. Each cereal perfectly complements each other, just be sure to take finely ground wheat, then your Druzhba milk porridge will be very tender. If you use a coarse grind, the grains can be felt in the finished dish.
