I'm not a big rice eater, partly because I hate cooking it on the stove. Silly me finally thought to look for a microwave recipe. This is now the only way I cook rice and it comes out perfect for me everytime.
White Rice
Brown Rice
Ingredients
4 cups water
1 cup brown rice
1 teaspoon oil (I use olive oil)
White Rice
Ingredients
- 1 cup white rice (not minute rice)
- 2 cups hot water
- 1 teaspoon butter or margarine
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
Directions
- Using a 2 quart casserole dish with lid, put rice, hot water, butter and salt in dish. Stir. (I put my casserole dish on a plate in the micro as sometimes the water boils over a little. Saves cleanup after).
- Cover, and microwave on high power 5 minutes. Stir with fork (careful watch the steam!)
- Cover and put back in microwave and cook on medium this time for 15 minutes.
- Remove lid (careful again!) and fluff with fork.
- Let stand 2-3 minutes.
- Serve.
