Description

Jasmine rice is a long-grain, fragrant rice that is commonly used in Southeast Asian cuisine. It has a delicate aroma and flavor, making it a perfect accompaniment to many dishes. This stovetop jasmine rice recipe is easy to follow and produces fluffy, fragrant rice that will perfectly complement any meal.

Prep Time

The prep time for this recipe is minimal. It should take you no more than 5 minutes to measure out the ingredients and rinse the rice.

Cook Time

The cook time for this recipe is approximately 20 minutes. This includes the time it takes for the rice to come to a boil, simmer, and rest.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup of jasmine rice
  • 1 ½ cups of water
  • Pinch of salt (optional)

Equipment

  • Medium-sized saucepan with a tight-fitting lid
  • Measuring cup
  • Strainer

Method

  1. Measure out one cup of jasmine rice and rinse it in a strainer under cold running water. Rinse until the water runs clear.
  2. In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, water, and a pinch of salt (if using).
  3. Bring the rice to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
  4. Once the rice comes to a boil, reduce the heat to low and cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid.
  5. Allow the rice to simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until all the water has been absorbed.
  6. Remove the pot from the heat and let it sit, covered, for an additional 5 minutes.
  7. After 5 minutes, remove the lid and fluff the rice with a fork.
  8. Your stovetop jasmine rice is now ready to serve!

Notes

  • Do not remove the lid while the rice is cooking, as this will release steam and affect the cooking time.
  • If you find that your rice is still a bit wet after cooking, leave it to rest for an additional 5 minutes before fluffing it with a fork.
  • If you prefer your rice to be less sticky, rinse it until the water runs clear before cooking. If you prefer your rice to be stickier, rinse it less.
