Cooking Steps
Rinse the white rice in a strainer under running water until the water runs clear.
In a pot, add the rice and water and bring it to a boil over high heat.
Once it comes to a boil, reduce the heat to low and cover the pot with a lid.
Let the rice simmer for 18-20 minutes until all the water is absorbed and the rice is cooked.
Remove from heat and let it sit for 5-10 minutes with the lid on to allow the rice to steam and fluff up.
Fluff the rice with a fork and serve hot.
