Nb persons: 4
Yield:
Preparation time:
Total time: 20 minutes
Source:
| 1 cup | long grain rice |
| 2 cups | water |
| 1 teaspoon | salt |
| 1 teaspoon | butter, (optional) |
1. In a saucepan with a good fitting lid bring water, salt and butter if desired to a boil.
2. Add rice and stir.
3. Cover and reduce heat to medium low. You will know that your temperature is correct if a little steam is visible leaking from the lid. Alot of steam means your heat is too high.
4. Cook for 20 minutes.
5. DO NOT LIFT LID!
6. The steam that is trapped inside the pan is what allows the rice to cook properly.
7. Remove from heat and fluff with fork.
8. Serve!
If your rice finishes cooking before the rest of the meal, place a double layer of paper towels under the lid of the pot. The paper absorbs steam and prevents condensation from forming on the lid and dripping into the pot, which can make the rice gummy.
