About rice recipes

Don't lower yourself to easy-cook or microwave rice. Rice is so easy to cook that it's just unnecessary. Basmati rice is my favourite all-purpose rice. It goes with most foods and has a wonderful perfume to it that other rices lack.

Always rinse rice in a sieve for a few minutes under cold running water to wash out the excess starch. You can tell when it's done as the water will run clear, even if you shimmy the sieve.

Always boil rice in a large pan with plenty of water unless the recipe specifies otherwise.

Rice can be cooked before the meal is due to be served, providing it is properly stored and used the same day. Allow the rice to cool and refrigerate until required. Microwave when needed, ensuring it is piping hot. Do not reheat rice that is more than 1 day old or rice that may not have been properly stored.(U.K. Government health advice)
