Cooked rice
Ingredients:
• Sella basmati rice 1 cup
• Water for cooking rice
• Salt a large pinch
Method:
• Wash the rice 3-4 times or until the water is clear, further soak the rice for minimum 15 minutes.
• After soaking, set water for boiling in a stock pot, make sure the water is boiling and then add the soaked rice & salt, stir once and further lower the flame after few seconds, cook the rice on medium heat until the rice is almost cooked. Make sure not to cook the rice completely.
• Check for the doneness of rice by taking few grains, press it with fingers and the rice should be squished and not mashed. You can also check by eating one grain.
• Once it’s almost cooked, use a sieve and drain the water, let the rice rest in sieve for few minutes to drain the extra water if any.
• Use a fork and fluff up the rice to stop the further cooking process, further use a big size flat vessel and spread the rice to fasten the cooling process, you can also keep the cooked rice in the fridge and use it later.
