Perfect Rice Every Time.

Avoid rice-horrors at the dinner table with this easy, no-brainer guide to cooking Perfect Rice Every Time.


























Ingredients

• Rice ( 1 cup)
  
• Water (1.25 cups)
  

(for 2 adults who aren't very hungry, otherwise use 2 cups rice and 2.5 cups water)

Directions

1. Go forth and buy some decent rice. Sushi-grade medium white rice is what you need.

























2. Measure 1 quantity of rice into the sauce-pan

Here I'm using a coffee cup...





















2. Add 1.25 (that's 1 1/4) quantity of water (filtered if your tap water is like mine...)

Note: I use the same coffee cup that I used for measuring the rice. It's important to measure quantities with the same cup!

3. Now, put the sauce pan (uncovered) on the stove, put burner on maximum and bring to the boil




















4 . Quickly, without hesitation, put a lid on the sauce-pan and reduce the burner to *minimum* heat

5. Cook for 12 minutes at least; you can leave on low heat for up to 20 mins before it starts to over-cook...

Note: Please don't remove the lid during the cooking time... 'cause steam will escape and it's bad luck. Apparently.

6. After 12 minutes, place the covered sauce pan in front of ravenous diners and with a flourish remove the lid! Watch the puff of steam, followed by the delicious aroma of Perfect Rice. Yum.
