Boiled Rice

In a steamer. (The only way I would try to cook rice)

• Put 200g RICE in the rice dish. Add 300g water (use the scales) add a good pinch of salt.
• Fill the reservoir with water & assemble the steamer. 
• Set timer for 30 minutes. When the bell pings the rice is cooked.

In a pan that has a close fitting lid. (This is VERY hard, grown men have been reduced to gibbering idiots trying to cook rice this way)

•  Heat 1 desert spoon of olive oil & add 200g in a saucepan. Using a wooden spoon stir the rice & get all the grains covered in oil.
• Add 400g of BOILING water & good pinch of salt.
• Stir & bring up to simmering then put on the lid & turn heat down to the lowest setting.
• After 15 minutes take off the lid & check rice, If the grains are soft & when you tip the pan you can’t see any water then the rice is cooked.
• DON’T WALK AWAY & LEAVE THE PAN - IT WILL BOIL DRY IF YOU DO! (If you do get rice stuck to the bottom of the pan after you have empted it, fill it straight away with cold water & leave to soak for a little while – it will be easier to clean.)
