  • For the perfect amount of water for cooking time, put water into pot with rice and use your middle finger, rest the tip of the finger on top of rice (not bottom of pot) and stop water level once it reaches the first crease/part the finger e.g. the whole tip of finger.
  • Add spices.
  • Bring to the boil, stir thoroughly.
  • Do not boil for long just bring to the boil then reduce heat.
  • Reduce heat to simmer and put lid on the rice.

  • Remove spices and serve.
  • Cooking time is approximate and depending on how much rice you are cooking, but is very quick to make.
