Rice For Dummies And In The Microwave Too
Found this recipe on a bag of basmati rice from sams and i feel like a genius! i am not even that crazy about rice but i can stuff this stuff down! i have made it several times now (had to before i posted it, would have been afraid not to!). what i like most about it is it turns out the same every time. takes the stress out of it!!
Steps
Rinse measured rice 1 to 2 times to remove starch.
I use a strainer.
Place measured rice , water , oil , and salt in a microwaveable casserole dish cover with lid or plastic wrap allowing a little steam to release.
Microwave on high for 10 minutes.
Stir and recover.
Then microwave on defrost setting for 9-10 minutes (if you have to enter a weight my microwave hits 9 minutes at 1.
