• Question

  What kind of plate do I use?

  

  Community Answer

  You can use any plate that fits into the rice cooker. In this case, it looks like the "plate" is made out of aluminum foil, so I would recommend doing something similar.

• Question

  Do the fish and the rice cook at the same time?

  

  Community Answer

  Yes, most rice cookers have timers on them and it usually takes about an hour to cook the rice. If you steam the fish along with the rice, they will both be cooked.
