    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.

    The rice came out perfectly. It wasn't sticky and it was hot and delicious!

    This is the best rice recipe I've come across. Comes out perfect every time & no mess. I use olive oil infused with garlic & use more chicken stock than water.

    Risotto rice was cooked to perfection. This is it for me.
    Add a fried onion to the cooked rice and it's ready to serve.

    I didn't think this would work so well, but I was pleasantly suprised. I do agree that 20 minutes works better than 25. As far as microwave power, I don't have med-low but used #3 and it did the trick.

    The dissapointing result was anticipated when I realized my microwave does not have a "medium-low" setting - power levels 1 - 10 are the only options. For the second round of cooking, on a guess, I used power level 4. After 15 minutes at level 4, the rice was soggy and hard. After another 2 minutes, the top layer was crispy and 50% of the rice was still hard. I gave up and emptied the bowl into the trash.
