PLAIN BASMATI RICE
Steps:
- Put the rice in a bowl. Cover with cold water, stirring the rice gently. Pour out the dirty water. Do this 4-5 times. Now cover well with fresh water and leave to soak for 30 minutes (longer will not hurt). Drain and leave in a sieve set over a bowl to drain some more.
- Put the drained rice in a heavy pan that has a tight-fitting lid. Add 2 2/3 cups water and bring to a boil. Cover tightly, turn heat to very, very low, and simmer gently for 25 minutes.
- When ready to serve, remove rice with a slotted spoon, breaking up the lumps gently with the back of the spoon.
