Preparation

Rinse the Rice
Place the long-grain rice in a fine-mesh strainer and rinse it under cold running water until the water runs clear. This helps remove excess starch.

Prepare the Vegetables
If using optional ingredients, dice the onion, red bell pepper, and carrots. Mince the garlic. Set aside.

Simmer the Rice
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the rice is cooked and the water is absorbed.
