A basic cooked rice recipe for use with stir-fries and other recipes served over rice.

Directions

Ingredients

  • 1 cup White Rice

Step 1

Rinse the rice thoroughly in a sieve, at least three times. Cover with water and let soak for 20 minutes. Drain.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Water
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • Butter, optional

Step 2

Put the rice in a medium saucepan. Add the water and salt. Adding a bit of butter or olive oil can help prevent it from boiling over and add extra flavor, but is strictly optional.
 

Step 3

Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce to low, cover, and simmer until all the water is absorbed, about 10 minutes per cup of rice. You'll start to smell the cooked rice when it's done. Enjoy!
