Boiled rice forms an important part of many meals. They can be served as a main dish with soupy sauces or fried food.
Serving: 3
Ingredients
- White rice - 1 cup
- Salt - 1 teaspoon
- Oil - 1 table spoon
- Water - 2 cups
Method
- Soak the rice in surplus water and set aside for 15 minutes.
- Drain all the water from the rice.
- Heat oil in a pan and add the rice in it. Fry for a minute or two.
- Add salt and water and mix well.
- Cover with a lid and cook on medium high heat.
- Once the water starts to boil, keep checking the rice after intervals. Note: Cook with lid on.
- Once the water seems almost consumed, craters will appear. Fold the rice and set the flame to low. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes.
- Cook on a low flame for about 3 minutes.
- Fold
the rice carefully from the edges and see if the moisture has reduced.
When the rice seems moist and there is no actual water visible, take it
off flame while keeping the lid on top. The remaining moisture will get
absorbed by the rice through the steam.
- Serve hot.
