How I do it: Perfect fluffy rice in microwave

What is so difficult about cooking rice, one might say!

I have got a fool-proof microwave rice recipe to make the perfect fluffy rice each time.

Ingredients

Rice - 2 cups, I use basmati rice

Tap water - 4 1/4 cups

Oil / Butter / Ghee - 1 tsp

Salt - 1 tsp

Method

Add all the ingredients in a microwavable pot and cook for 20 minutes on full power. Once the 20 minutes is over use a fork to fluff up your rice. 

For best results cover with a tight lid and stand for a further 5 mts.

Best served ASAP.

If you are using it after it has been cooled down or been in refrigerator, add a sprinkle of water before microwaving again.

Tip:

- For best results, wash ur rice in running tap water prior to cooking to remove extra starch

- Flavour up ur rice with anything at all - left over chick pea curry, masala of egg masala, soem frozen veg( plus more salt), or anything that u might fancy.
