How To Make aunt squishy's coke balls over basil basmati
-
Step 1Combine everything from the Coke Balls ingredients list except for the meatballs in the Crock Pot and stir thoroughly.
-
Step 2Add the meatballs and stir (if you can, if not it's ok).
-
Step 3Turn the Crock Pot on and start cooking on low for 4-6 hours (they will be done in 4, but can continue cooking on low for up to 6 if you need more time before serving). Stir thoroughly after 2-3 hours when the meatballs have cooked down enough that you can. Stir again an hour later to balance flavor.
-
Step 420 minutes before serving time, combine all of the basil basmati ingredients in your rice cooker, turn on, and cook per normal.
-
Step 5When the rice is done fluff it, dish it, and top with a healthy spoonful of Coke Balls (give them one more good stir to evenly distribute the mushrooms, onions, and peas). Be sure to scoop from the bottom to get a small drizzle of the cooking liquid over each bowl, and serve.
