Ingredients

1 cup brown jasmine rice
2 cups water

Instructions

Thoroughly rinse your brown jasmine rice under water. This removes any dust from storage or starch that has built up.
Add 1 cup of rice, 2 cups of water, and to a medium saucepan. Bring mixture to a boil.
Once boiling, cover the pot with a lid and reduce the heat to a simmer. Let simmer for 40-45 minutes, or until all water is absorbed.*
When water is fully absorbed, turn off the heat and let the brown jasmine rice rest for 5 minutes. Now you're ready to enjoy!

Notes

Every stove and pot is different, so the cooking time will vary. The rice is done when all of the water has been absorbed.

Just remove the lid towards the end of cooking (watch out for steam burns), and give the rice a good stir to see if anything is sticking and if there is still liquid. If all the liquid is gone, turn off the heat and the rice is ready to rest and be served. If there is still liquid, let it cook a little longer, but keep your eye on it!
