Ingredients

  • 2 cups long grain rice
  • 3 1/2 cups water or stock
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons butter or oil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Place all ingredients in a large glass measuring or any microwave safe bowl. Note: the rice expands during cooking, so be sure to choose a container that is large enough. Microwave on high, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Microwave on medium-low, uncovered, for 15 minutes. Do not stir the rice at any time during the cooking process. Season with salt and fluff with a fork just before serving.

    I currently have no range/stove/oven whatever you may call it. I have a 50+ year old microwave I got from my husband's family and it does a pretty good job. It only has the setting HIGH and --- which I can only assume is medium?

    I cooked the rice for 10 minutes on HIGH and 15 minutes on ---. And let it sit in the microwave for about 5 minutes. I am currently eating all this rice. It is AMAZING.

    When I get a stove, I might keep cooking my rice via the old microwave. I love this quick, easy and delicious recipe to cook rice.
