Step 1:
rice seems to be labeled a lot as boring or tricky to make so here’s some help to make it easy and interesting!! Step 3:
your rice will have instructions on the back of how much water to rice to use IGNORE THEM!! they do my head in and make more confusion than necessary! Step 5:
1. get the amount of rice you wana eat (remembering rice swells up when cooked similar to pasta) Step 6:
2. put it in a cup or container, measureing jugs are perfect if you have one. (make a mental not of where it comes up to in the container) Step 7:
3. put a little oil in ur pan for the rice when it heats up throw in the dry rice in and stir so its coated Step 8:
4. you now need to use the container you just used for the rice and fill DOUBLE with water the amount that u did of rice. so rice=50% water=100% total=150% Step 9:
5. chuck the water in with the rice and give it a good stir Step 10:
6. crumble in your stock cubes of choice (i usually use one cube for every one pint of water) Step 11:
7. you need to pop a lid on it now so the water doesnt all evaporate and leave for 5 mins checking every now and then and giving it an occasional stir Step 12:
8. try it regularly and when its done to your tastes remove and enjoy Step 14:
NOTE: if you start getting low on water and its still hard/firm add SMALL amounts of water to the rice and stir again keep it moist till its done cooking once u feel its done you can remove the lid and let the rest of the water dissapear
