A GUIDE TO MAKING A PERFECT RICE DISH
Making a delicious rice dish as you may see served in restaurants is easy. With just a little effort, you can make a delicious dish of rice. Here is a guide to making a great rice dish at home.
Whenever you are preparing a rice dish, just remember this basic point: always boil rice in water it can absorb Here are steps to follow when making preparation.
Step 1
The first thing that you need to do is to wash the rice in cold water. Wash it several times until the water is clean and clear, draining it with a drainer, or using your hands if you do not have a drainer and making sure that you hold back the rice firmly with your hands to prevent it from falling off. To your cooking pot, add enough water and put it over the fire to boil. On the clean rice, add water that will cover the rice for about an hour.
Step 2
After an hour, drain the water from the rice. On your boiling pot, add sufficient water and put it on fire. Wait until it boils. Once it boils, you can add the washed rice. It is advisable that you do not bring the water and the rice to boil at the same time as this could result to uneven boiling of the rice. At this point, lower the heat so as to prevent the water from spilling over.
Step 3
If you like, you can add a little salt to the rice on the boiling pot, and stir. Stirring keeps the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot. Salt together with a few drops of lemon enhance the rice by making it appear whiter than it is. Cook until you see large bubbles forming on the pot of rice.
Step 4
Once you notice large bubbles forming on your cooking pot, cover the pot with a lid, and allow it to cook for about 12 minutes, and then check if the rice is ready, by smashing a grain of rice on a plate. This will tell you if the rice is ready or if it needs further cooking. If the rice is ready, remove it from the fire and allow it to cool before serving it.
