I looked at the RDIs as calculated by the MyFoodData website and it does look like you can meet protein needs with Gelatin and rice alone but come up a little short on Tryptophan.
Seems like the way to go would be the following:
100g of gelatin
4 Cups of white rice
The website didn't specify uncooked or cooked but I'm guessing cooked from looking at the macros.
Essential amino acids met by gelatin alone:
Phenylalaine: 199% RDI
Threonine: 140% RDI
valine: 114% RDI
Lysine: 165% RDI
Arginine: 6,616 mg (Website didn't list RDI and semiessential)
Essential Amino Acids met by gelatin + white rice
Histidine: 95% + 56%
Isoleucine: 83% + 52%
Leucine: 90% + 52%
Methionine: 83% + 56%
Essential Amino Acid not met by gelatin + rice
Tryptophan - 68% (rice)
A popular but non-essential amino acid with RDI not met
Tyrosine - 64% (rice)
Non essential amino acids in gelatin
Alanine - 8,009 mg
Glutamic acid - 8,753 mg
Glycine - 19,049 mg
Proline - 12,295 mg
Serine - 2,605 mg
