Ingredients

  • 1 cups (250ml) long grain rice
  • 2 cups (500ml) water, boiling
  • frozen peas
  • tinned sweetcorn

Method

Add one cup of rice to two cups of boiling water, place in a microwaveable bowl and stir. Use one cup of rice for two people and one mug for three to four people. Make sure you use the same cup for measuring rice and water.

Cook in the microwave on high power for ten minutes. Remove and stir. At this stage, you may also like to add frozen peas or tinned sweetcorn for a more savoury rice.

Return the bowl to the microwave and cook on medium power for five minutes.
