I need some more info on this. So you have uncooked rice and put it with with water in the microwave to cook it?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Yeah so I take a microwave safe bowl. Two cups of rice, and four cups of water. Microwave on high for ten minutes, stir it. Another ten minutes depending on how it looks. Comes out perfect most of the time. I have the best results with Jasmine rice but it works with regular too.

using a microwave is the only way I can actually cook rice perfectly. I don't own a rice cooker and stovetop is just a sticky mess

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

I do five minutes on high, 12-15 on medium.

It only takes me 18 minutes on the stove top. How can the microwave take longer?
