Rice Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Rinse the Rice

   Measure 1 cup of long-grain white rice and rinse it under cold water in a fine mesh strainer. This helps to remove excess starch and prevents the rice from becoming sticky.

2. 2

   Prepare the Cooking Pot

   In a medium saucepan, add 2 cups of water, 1 tsp of salt, and 1 tbs of butter or olive oil. Stir to combine.

3. 3

   Bring to a Boil

   Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a boil.

4. 4

   Add the Rice

   Once the water is boiling, add the rinsed rice to the saucepan. Stir briefly to ensure that the rice is evenly dispersed.

5. 5

   Simmer the Rice

   Cover the saucepan with a tight-fitting lid, reduce the heat to low, and let it simmer for 18-20 minutes without lifting the lid.

6. 6

   Fluff and Serve

   After 18-20 minutes, remove the saucepan from heat but keep it covered for an additional 5 minutes. Then, remove the lid and fluff the rice with a fork before serving.
