Step 1
Place rice and water in a medium size saucepan over medium high heat, no lid.
Step 2
Bring to a simmer - the edges should be bubbling, the middle should be rippling, the surface will be foaming.
Step 3
Place a tight fitting lid on, then turn heat down to medium low (low for strong stoves).
Step 4
Cook for 12 minutes - DO NOT LIFT LID.
Step 5
Tilt saucepan, then take a QUICK peek to ensure all water is absorbed - be super quick, then clamp lid back on.
Step 6
Remove from heat, leave for 5 to 10 minutes with lid on, then fluff with fork and marvel at fluffy rice!
Step 7
Note - Large batches will take slightly longer - about 13 minutes for 2 cups, about 15 minutes for 4 cups (use a pot).
