Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup brown jasmine rice
- 2 ½ cups water or broth (for extra flavor)
- ½ teaspoon salt (optional)
- 1 teaspoon olive oil or butter (optional, for richness)
Instructions
1. Rinse the Rice
- Rinse brown jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch and prevents stickiness.
2. Cook the Rice
- In a medium pot or saucepan, combine rice, water (or broth), salt, and oil/butter.
- Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover with a tight-fitting lid, and let simmer for 35–40 minutes.
3. Let It Rest
- Once the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed, remove from heat and let it sit, covered, for 10 minutes. This allows the steam to finish cooking the rice.
4. Fluff & Serve
- Fluff the rice with a fork and serve warm.
Storage & Reheating
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
- Reheat in the microwave with a splash of water or broth to restore moisture.
Notes
- Use broth instead of water for more flavor.
- Add bay leaves or garlic while cooking for an aromatic touch.
- Want softer rice? Increase water to 2 ¾ cups and cook for 45 minutes.
