Rice

In todays post, I am going back to basics. I love rice. It's simple, nutritious,a great flavor carrier as well as being tasty on it's own. It's good for breakfast, lunch or dinner, main dishes or desserts. Today is just simple boiled/steamed rice.

Basic Rice

1 cup long grain rice
2 cups water
a dash of salt
a pot with a tight fitting lid

Place the rice, water and salt into the pot. Place over high heat and bring to a boil. Boil for a minute or so, turn down the heat to a bare simmer. Put the lid on and allow the rice to cook for about 20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and all the liquid is absorbed.
