Notes

  • You don't need to add the water all at once, you can add it little by little and test the softness of the rice. Adding it little by little prevents the rice from becoming too soft.
  • You can use white or parboiled rice.
  • Taste the salt after adding the hot water to see if you need to add more.
  • Use your favorite seasonings, but only add fresh seasonings at the end so they don't burn.
