How To Cook Thai Red Rice - thai red rice

Method

• Put dry rice into a bowl and fill with tap water.
• Let soak for an hour
• Then, rinse rice and discard the soaking water
• In a pot, heat oil over high heat and add rice.
• Fry for a minute
• Then add 2 cups of water.
• Bring to a boil (covered partially with a lid)
• Then add salt, cover and cook until rice is soft (it should take up to 45 minutes but mine took only 28) and all liquid is absorbed.
• If liquid is absorbed but rice isn't cooked, feel free to add more water
• Take off heat but keep covered for 10 minutes
• I serve my rice with this :) Enjoy!
