How to make Microwave Rice
Cooking rice should be
easy. White rice goes well with most Indian main dishes. Since it’s best when
eaten fresh and hot, it’s a bother to put it in a pan or pressure cooker on the
stove. We don’t like doing that because transferring it to a serving bowl is
pretty troublesome. We found through several trials and errors that making rice
in the microwave saved us time and extra utensils in the kitchen sink.
Step One: Wash rice well.
Step Two: Put it in a deep microwave friendly bowl.
Step Three: Add water to this bowl and simply put it in the microwave for 20 minutes.
Step Four: Once it is cooked fluff it with a serving spoon and let it cool for about five minutes.
We usually eat rice with some rich Indian curries like Fish Tenga. Some other dishes white rice goes excellently with: Spinach Chicken, Beef Vindaloo, Pork Vindaloo and Mutton Curry.
