Hey,

I like Asian rice best, such as basmati, jasmin and the like.

For the basic recipe I use to cover the bottom of a saucepan with oil (any cheap one will do it), add the rice and saute it for about 1 minute while stirring, until the rice turns from more transparent to white. Now I add hot water, as a rule of thumb I use about thrice as much as rice used (measured in cups), add some salt and bring it to a boil. Afterwards I let it simmer at low heat until all the water is nearly absorbed and evaporated. Now you can taste if the rice is well done, if necessary add some more water. However, before the water is all absorbed, you have to stir well and steadily so that the rice will not scorch.

I think it will have a great taste even on its own (given you use one of the 'better' sorts mentioned above).

You can add other ingredients to add some other flavor. For recipes with tropical fruits coconut flakes are just great (e.g. pan fried, bacon-wrapped banana and a tropical fruit mix as 'salad').

What is your rice favourite?
