sorted bySome people do, but I don't fuss, after all it is boiled, maybe there's starch around but to me, it doesn't alter the taste.
300g water (no salt)
Bring the water to boil on a high heat without the lid, put the lid on and simmer for 12 mins on a low heat, take it off the heat and leave for 10 mins. Use a silicon spatula to fluff up, never a fork.
You're welcome. (edited)
Guessing you cook on electric not gas or induction
Two part water? I hope that's brown rice otherwise that's like porridge.
One part white rice, one part water, click button, don't worry about it until it's ready to serve.
I drink coffee. I could grind beans and use a stove top espresso maker, but a coffee pod machine is more convenient.
I like toast. I could grill the bread but a toaster is more convenient.
I like rice. I use a rice cooker.
Not understanding all the hate, which seems to be from people that don't own a rice cooker?
Wash the rice first as well!
Two parts water and one of rice, not brown rice has always worked for me. I always wait till all the water has been absorbed, which it is. Maybe you like your rice 'al dente'
You clearly haven’t had rice cooker rice. Try it… you’ll never turn back
Haiyaa
Not worthy with this price for a new one with warranty. Any replacement part available cost at least 10 pounds + shipping.
Exactly how I do it, perfect every time
Until quite recently we had been using a microwaveable rice steamer but a quick Google search for the best basmati rice and there it is, I can’t take any credit for it really.
I might add some lemon juice to the water if I remember to.
At least it's cheap but if I had the choice again, I wouldn't have purchased.
Similar. I got a Morphy Richards one for Christmas (living the dream!) and I can get decent rice from a pan. However, it's nice being able to set the rice cooker away and just forget about it with no danger of burning it to the bottom.
True. I fry my rice a lot and it turns to a mushy mess if I haven't.
At the end of the day, follow the instructions on the packet to the letter and you're fine.
How long does it normally take you till its ready to eat, after turning he hob off?
Do you leave the lid on while it is on the hob without the heat on?
I cook brown rice and was hoping I could do it this way (edited)
About three quarters of an hour.
I leave the lid on
White as I said in my original comment
Simply explained by the following words: Those who don't know, don't know.
I use a small tea mug to measure a full mug of rice, I wash and rinse the rice in the pot when I can and then use the same mug full with water to cook the rice. It’s done in about 15-20 minutes and is more than enough for two people with a bit left over. As others say you can just switch it on and leave it until it’s ready to serve.
Tautology?
If I'm wrong then I really don't know. Just cooked myself a big pan of perfect rice last night. As enjoyed by the many Chinese and Japanese guests I've had here over the years.
I've had a very expensive Japanese rice cooker if you want to experiement with a variety of different types of rice, but nowadays I don't bother. KISS
In fact I would rather go without my kettle than without my rice cooker
Got it for £9.99 from home bargains last year, great little model!
How many portions can this handle in total?
You still have to wash the rice, not for starch, but to clean it, like you would wash veg or any food produce, before cooking and eating.
How much water, it depends on your preference, some like it hard rice and some like soft rice ie sticky rice.
