Cooking Steps

Cook the jasmine rice
1

• Add the water to a medium saucepan and bring to the boil.
• Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low.
• Cook for 10 minutes, then remove pan from heat.
• Keep covered until rice is tender and water is absorbed, 10 minutes. 


TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so don’t peek!
