The best way to cook amazing food is to master the basics. Perfect brown rice is so versatile, whether for stir-fries, burrito bowls, or serving alongside grilled fish and veggies.
1 cup regular brown rice (not instant)
2 cups water
Combine the rice and water in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, uncovered.
Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and let simmer for 30 minutes or until the rice has absorbed all the liquid.
Turn off the heat and leave covered for 5 more minutes.
Remove the cover and fluff the rice with a fork. Serve immediately or chill to use in salads.

The brown rice I've made always requires 1/8 to 1/4 cup more water. So for 1 cup of brown rice 2 1/8 cups of water are required. I also boil the water with salt before adding the rice. Thank you
