Foolproof boiled rice

How to make your rice fluffy and light, works every time

Ingredients

• Rice
• Water or stock

Instructions

STEP 1:

Firstly measure your rice out using a measuring jug and rinse it thoroughly out in a sieve. This removes most of the startchy shite that makes your rice sticky.

STEP 2:

Put it back in the jug, add water equivalent to 1 and a half the volume of the rice.

STEP 3:

So say for example you have 1 cup (8floz) of rice, you add 1.5 cups (12floz) of water.

STEP 4:

Or stock, rice is tasty cooked in stock.

STEP 5:

Pour it into a pan and on a medium heat bring to the boil, lid off.

STEP 6:

When it’s boiling place the lid on top but not all the way, leave it slightly off.

STEP 7:

When the rice is beginning to form "craters" (you’ll know what I mean) put the lid on tightly, reduce to low heat and cook for another 12-15 minutes (depending on what your cooker is like)

STEP 8:

Do not remove the lid in this time else you’ll let the moisture out and your rice will stick to the pan!

STEP 9:

When the time is up, fluff it with a fork and serve.

STEP 10:

Or let it go cold and fry it up with vegetables, meat or eggs and eat with soy sauce.
