Chinese Rice Recipes - Boiled Rice Recipe
Ingredients
Method:
-
Turn the rice
into a large bowl and cover it well with cold water.
Rub the rice between the thumb and fingers to remove
loose starch. Drain off the water and repeat this
treatment several times. Drain again.
-
Place the bowl of
rice under the cold water tap and let the water
trickle on to it until overflowing and clear.
-
Turn the drained
rice into a large saucepan and add cold water to
come to a depth of an inch above it. Cover and do
not remove the lid during the cooking.
-
Place over a high
heat. After 3-4 minutes, lower the heat a little and
lower it again after a further 3-4 minutes.
-
Allow another 20
minutes at this low heat. With a fork, loosen the
rice at the sides to allow steam to escape. Transfer
to a heated serving dish.
Note: If packaged long-grained rice is used follow
directions on packet.
