1
Rinse rice
Rinse the white long-grain rice under cold running water in a fine-mesh sieve until the water runs clear. Drain well.
2
Combine and bring to boil
In a medium pot, combine the rinsed rice, water, salt, and olive oil. Stir once, then place over medium-high heat and bring to a gentle boil.
3
Simmer
Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-18 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.
4
Rest and fluff
Remove from heat and let the rice sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork before serving.
