 Ingredients:
- Rice
- Fresh water |
|
| |
Instructions :
These instructions are for those who don't have a rice
cooker.
 |
1.
Measure rice in a cup. For this demonstration (just
for fun) I used the old vegemite jar that people
used back in the day.
One cup normally serves 2 people |
 |
2. Put rice in the pot and
fill up with water.
to measure how much water you require simply level the rice
out. Place your index finger tip on the rice level and fill
the water up to the first knuckle / knuckle line
as per picture.

3. Once you've got the water level right put the stove on
high (don't shut the lid) and wait until it boils. When the
water has almost dried out (as in this photo) then turn the
heat off completely (this is for electric stove only) and
shut the lid. The residual heat from the hot plate will
continue cooking the rice and allow it to be absorbed into
the grains. Leave for 10 minutes. With gas burners turn the
gas down very low. Shut the lid and wait until the rice
absorbs all the
water. Depending on how low you have your heat this should
take roughly between 5 and 10 minutes. This is known as the
absorption method.
** no need to give it a stir or anything (just watch the
water level)** |
 |
4. with electric cook tops leave the lid on until the rice
is cooked. To check if it's cooked - open the pot and see if
rice still semi translucent. If so it means it's not ready
yet. When the rice is ready all water will have been
absorbed into the rice leaving it a nice solid white.

Here we go!!!
