Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Rinse the Rice

    Place the jasmine rice in a fine-mesh strainer and rinse under cold running water until the water runs clear. This helps remove excess starch and prevents the rice from becoming gummy.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a medium saucepan, combine rinsed jasmine rice, 1.5 cups of water, and 0.5 tsp of salt. If using, add 1 tbsp of butter or oil.

  3. 3

    Bring to a Boil

    Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.

  4. 4

    Simmer the Rice

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan with a lid, and let it simmer for about 15 minutes or until all the water is absorbed.

  5. 5

    Fluff the Rice

    After 15 minutes, remove the saucepan from heat. Let it sit covered for an additional 5 minutes. Then, fluff the rice with a fork before serving.
