Ingredients
Method
Directions
- 1
Rinse the Rice
In a fine mesh strainer, rinse 1 cup of jasmine rice under cold running water for about 1-2 minutes. This helps remove excess starch and prevents the rice from becoming sticky.

Combine Ingredients
In a medium-sized pot, combine the rinsed jasmine rice, 1.5 cups of water, and 0.5 tsp of salt. Stir gently to ensure the rice is evenly distributed in the water.

Bring to a Boil
Place the pot over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a boil. Keep an eye on it to avoid overflow.

Simmer and Cover
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid, and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes. Do not lift the lid during this time as it will release steam.
