HOW TO COOK WHITE RICE


Ingredients Per Person

1/4 - 2/3 pint of thoroughly washed rice.
One and a half times that amount of water.
Level teaspoon of salt per half pint of rice.
Teaspoon of butter or margarine.

Method

1. Bring the ingredients to a vigorous boil in a tightly covered pan or microwave dish.
2. Stir the rice well, replace lid and bring back to the boil.
3. Continue boiling for a few seconds then turn the heat right down and simmer for 15 minutes.
4. Take the rice off the heat, give it a stir, replace lid and leave it to stand for 5-10 minutes before serving.
5. Enjoy!

Tips

*Use less water for firmer rice.
*For fluffier rice, leave covered for 20-40 minutes after taking off heat.
*Stirring your rice after cooking is not essential, but it does help dissipate the steam, which prevents further cooking while your rice is resting.
*Omit the butter or marge if you want
