4 servings
- •1 cup long-grain white rice (such as jasmine or basmati)
- •1.5 cups water
- •1 teaspoon unsalted butter or oil
- •0.75 teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients.
- Rinse rice using a fine-mesh strainer, gently stirring by hand, until water runs somewhat clear.
- Thoroughly drain rice and place in a 8-cup microwave safe bowl or container; add water, butter or oil, and salt.
- Microwave uncovered on HIGH until water is mostly absorbed and some steam holes appear on the surface, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Cover tightly with microwave safe plastic wrap, lid, or plate; microwave on HIGH for 4 more minutes until rice is tender and water is fully absorbed. Let stand, covered, for 6 minutes.
- Uncover; fluff and taste rice using a fork. If rice is not yet tender, cover and microwave on HIGH in 1-minute intervals as needed until rice reaches desired consistency.
- Serve immediately.
