Methods of cooking White Rice:
There are various methods to cook white rice, and also everyone have their unique style according to their taste. You can cook white rice in a rice cooker, pressure cooker, boil and strain method or even in a microwave.
Personally, I cook white rice using a large pan on the stove top because it is easy and quick method also rice turns out fluffy compared to cooking in a rice cooker. I just soak white rice for 20 minutes and cook it in the boiling water.
If you want to make fried rice, soak rice for 30 minutes and add 1 cup of rice to 1.50 cups of water. Allow it to cool completely before preparing fried rice.
Add water depending on the quality of a rice. I used long grain Basmati Rice, so I added 2 cups of water to 1 cup of rice.
