1
Rinse the Brown Rice
Measure 1 cup of brown rice and rinse it under cold water in a fine mesh strainer. This will help remove excess starch and prevent the rice from being too sticky.
2
Combine Ingredients
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed brown rice, 2 cups of water, 0.5 tsp of salt, and 1 tbsp of olive oil. Stir gently to combine.

3
Bring to Boil
Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low.
4
Simmer
Cover the saucepan with a lid and let it simmer on low heat for about 45 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the water has been absorbed.
5
Fluff and Serve
Remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit covered for 10 minutes. Then, remove the lid and fluff the rice with a fork before serving.
