Ingredients
- 3 cups basmati rice
- Cold water
- Salt
Instructions
- Wash the rice twice in cold water to remove impurities and drain through a strainer.
- Add the rice to a large saucepan and cover with cold water until the water reaches about 1/2-inch above the rice. Add a little salt, to taste, and bring the rice and the water to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low, stir the rice then cover with a tight lid and cook until all the water has been absorbed. The rice normally takes about 15 minutes to cook and should be light and fluffy when cooked. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve.
Reviews
This is exactly what I was looking for. Simple, basic instructions for cooking basmati rice. The directions are a bit different than for regular long grain/converted rice. These directions are simple and straightforward.
