Nasi Basmati (cara sederhana, nasi empuk!)

Bahan-bahan

3 porsi

1 cup uncooked basmati rice ( (Note 1))
1 1/2 cups water ((just cold tap water))

Langkah-langkah

Place rice and water in a medium size saucepan over medium high heat, no lid.
Bring to a simmer - the edges should be bubbling, the middle should be rippling, the surface will be foaming.
Place a tight fitting lid on, then turn heat down to medium low (low for strong stoves).
Cook for 12 minutes - DO NOT LIFT LID.
Tilt saucepan, then take a QUICK peek to ensure all water is absorbed - be super quick, then clamp lid back on.
Remove from heat, leave for 5 to 10 minutes with lid on, then fluff with fork and marvel at fluffy rice!
Note - Large batches will take slightly longer - about 13 minutes for 2 cups, about 15 minutes for 4 cups (use a pot).
