Description

Grits are a classic Southern dish made from ground corn, typically served as a breakfast or side dish. While traditionally cooked on the stovetop, using a rice cooker is a convenient and foolproof way to make perfect grits every time. This recipe is simple, straightforward, and yields creamy, delicious grits that are perfect for any meal of the day.

Prep Time

5 minutes

Cook Time

30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 cup grits
  • 4 cups water or broth
  • 2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Rice cooker
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Spatula or wooden spoon

Method

  1. Measure 1 cup of grits and rinse thoroughly in a fine-mesh strainer to remove any debris or dust.
  2. Add the grits to the rice cooker along with 4 cups of water or broth.
  3. Add 2 tablespoons of butter or olive oil and salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Stir everything together to combine.
  5. Close the lid of the rice cooker and turn it on, setting it to the "porridge" or "white rice" setting if available.
  6. Cook for 30 minutes or until the grits are soft and creamy.
  7. Stir the grits occasionally during cooking to ensure even cooking and prevent clumping.
  8. Once the grits are done, turn off the rice cooker and let them sit for 5 minutes to thicken up.
  9. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to stir the grits one last time before serving.
  10. Enjoy!

Notes

  • You can use any kind of grits for this recipe, but we recommend stone-ground grits for the best texture and flavor.
  • If you want to add extra flavor to your grits, try stirring in some cheese, bacon, or herbs before serving.
  • If your rice cooker doesn't have a "porridge" or "white rice" setting, just use the regular "cook" setting and check the grits periodically to ensure they don't overcook or dry out.
