I had this dish in Denver. The bar tended to sell mexican food, but I am not sure if this is specifically a mexican dish.
The actual meal itself (onion, coconut etc) I am not looking for specifically. I haven’t been able to find a recipe where crispy rice in general is made in a cast iron pan.
The bottom and sides were crispy, and the middle was very creamy rice. Does anyone have a recipe or suggestions?
Maybe look at recipes for dolsot bibimbap. When it’s cooked in a stone bowl it develops the same bottom crust.
Chef Edward Lee has a recipe for simulating that crust using a cast iron skillet.
He’s all about mixing influences from his Korean heritage and Kentucky upbringing.
awesome thanks
