<p>So in an effort to gain weight while running 30+ miles/week and using weights at the gym, I'm adding more carbs to my diet and the easiest/cheapest way to do this, for me at least, is to eat white rice. I'm Asian so it's not hard to find white rice, but I don't like how plain and bland it is.</p>
<p>I don't like it plain, but I've tried it cooked in a broth/soup from chicken bones, red dates, goji berries and Chinese medicinal herbs, and it's not bad. Cooked in coconut milk, it's also really nice and rich and coconutty.</p>
<p>If you include white rice in your diet, how do you prep it to make it taste not so plain?</p>

My quick method for making it tasty and calorific is to add in around 4 oz of fried lamb or beef mince and usually 1 oz of grass-fed butter. I'll often fry an onion up with the mince.</p>
<p>I just had some rice for lunch with white fish and added a cream-based curry sauce.</p>

Then I toss it with lime juice, salt and pepper and mix in a full bunch of minced cilantro. Pile meat, avocado and salsa on top of the rice, with maybe a little cheese and/or soured cream if you do dairy. This is very similar to Chipoltle's cilantro-lime rice - SO good!</p>

I heat on the stove and sometimes use a thickening agent to make it less runny and pour it over my rice when its done. Its DELICIOUS. Sometimes I mix it with a little bit of fried pork.</p>

This is really surprisingly good tasting. This forms the basis of my dinner meal. I add another protein as well. Salmon really makes this rock.</p>
