Ingredients:
1 cup long grain basmati rice (I use the brand Wafa)
Water
Salt
Directions:
1. Wash the rice 3 times and soak in lukewarm water for a minimum of 30 mins before cooking
2. Fill a large pot 3/4 of the way and bring water to a boil. Season with salt as you would be boiling pasta
3. Drain your rice that’s been soaking and add the rice into the boiling water
4. Once the water begins to boil, boil for 5 mins. The rice will still feel hard and uncooked but that’s how it should be.
5. Strain your rice completely and add the rice back into your pot
6. Place the pot on the smallest burner over the lowest flame. Cover the pot tightly and let the remainder of the rice cook in the steam for 10 mins. Do not open the lid in this time. The steam finishes the cooking process and gives your rice that fluffy texture
7. Remove the lid and fluff up rice with your fork
8. Enjoy
