Two cups of water 1 cup of rice. Boil it.
I would say that’s literally impossible to fuck up but you exist…

Did you rinse the rice first? It can turn it gluey because of the excess starch if you don’t.

looks like something you’d be served in a siberian gulag.

If you can spare like $20, get you a rice cooker. Truly one of the most convenient and worthwhile kitchen investments.

This looks more like porridge than rice
Pudgy_Ninja
I do not understand the trouble people have with stovetop rice. Pour rice into pot. Rinse three times or so. Fill pot to cover rice plus a bit. You can go knuckle if you want, it doesn’t have to be exact. Cover. Set to high. When it boils turn down to low. 15 minutes. Turn off. 10-15 minutes, fluff. You’re done.

How can you guys mess rice up. It is the simplest thing to cook. Just use the first line on your finger to measure the water.

Please Sir can I have no more.

Get a rice cooker or uses the microwave rice bags r/unclebens

Wash off the starch until the water barely runs clear Drain it, and add a 1:1 ratio of rice and water (maybe add just a bit more water) Medium heat
CortlenC
If you will wash the rice, put a few inches of water past the rice, turn heat on high, once you stop seeing the bubbles from it cooking, turn off heat, and put lid on it. Let it sit for 15 minutes and it’ll be done.

Add some cinnamon, sugar, and milk and you have Arroz con Leche.

Unable-Rutabaga8301
let me see if i can help you. so 1 cup of rice serves 2 people 2 cups of rice serves 4 people so what youre gonna do is take a cup of your choice,i use a mug and fill it to the brim,not over,just exactly then youre gonna pour that into you pot,then youre gonna rise it,you drain the water after like 2-3 rinses depends on how the rice will be looking. the youre gonna take the same cup you used to measure and pour the rice and fill it up with water in this case 2 cups of water. then you’re gonna add a dash of salt,not too much for taste and a TEASPOON of cooking oil. where gonna turn of the stove and cook it. different types of rice have different cooking times so youre gonna keep checking on your rice until you cant see the water above it. then yoire gonna take a fork and scratch the bottom of the pot and take it out if it drips water the rice isn’t done. only till when you dip the fork all the way through the pot and the fork comes out not dripping with rice water and you taste it and its fluffy and not pebble tasting only then will you know its done. i kinda suck at giving instructions but i tried,if you have any questions,please,ask!

Friendly tip : put your finger on the top of the rice and add water until it reaches the first joint on your finger.

So for more context: this picture is a few months back, it was my first time cooking rice and my first time failed because I apparently had high heat so it was burnt, so during my second try (same night), I was so afraid it would burn again so I just kept adding water everytime it would dry, yes, very stupid of me, but all and all, thats how this weird pudding thingy came about. I ended up eating noodles that night
Obviously (and thankfully), I can cook rice now, this was just the process of fucking up and learning.

1 cup rice, 1.5 cups water,
high heat for 12 minutes,
then low heat for 24 minutes.
if you double the rice, add time to both (15, 30)
also, soaking the rice ~30 minutes before cooking helps

Keep trying! You got this. 2 to 1 is the key- 2 cups of water to 1 but of rice. Medium heat

Boil 2 cups of water with a tbsp or so of oil. Add 1 cup of rice, cover and simmer for about 15-20 minutes.

How did you fuck that up so bad? I can’t even fathom that. Did you curse the rice with a satanic mantra first? Dafuq did you do?!?

Gotta get a rice cooker imo. Looks like way to much water.

Add some more water and keep cooking and you’ll have congee (rice porridge)

1 rice to 1.5 ratio liquid. Rice rice 3 times. Bring to boil, reduce to simmer and cover for 15 min. Turn off flame let sit for 15. It’s just that easy. Don’t know how y’all fuck it up.

How can you mess up that bad

I can’t make good rice on the stove to save my life but a professional cook gave me his recipe I’ll share with you.
>>Don’t rinse it.
>>Cook onions and garlic in a neutral oil until soft, add rice. Coat rice until each grain is glistening with oil.
>>Add 1:1.5 rice:liquid. Bring to a boil, season, cover and simmer or 375F oven for 20 min.
>>Take off stove/out of oven and let sit with lid on for another 5-10 min. Fluff right away.
With this recipe I get perfect rice every time.
I usually skip the onions and garlic and just melt a little butter in the pot. I also like my rice a little dryer so I usually use a tiny bit less water, around 1:1.3 but I suggest using those measurements your first time. Also, use a timer.
Det_Popcorn5
It’s easy. Rinse rice until it runs clear, soak for 10 minutes, drain, 2 cups water to 1 cup of rice, bring water to boil, add rice, reduce to simmer for 16 minutes with lid, turn off heat after 16 minutes, steam for 10 more minutes with lid still on. Voilà! You just made rice 😎👌

You are the second coming of Jesus. You managed to turn rice into mash potatoes.
SuckyMyPeePee38
1 clean the rice several times with cold water
2 put the same volume of water as you did rice
3 take the water to a boil with the rice in it and mix once to make sur nothing is stuck to the bottom
4 once it’s boiling, put the lid on and turn the fire to almost nothing (10-30% of total power depending on your fire)
5 check after 5-10 minutes
6 when the water as almost totally been absorbed, take it off the fire, keep the lid on and wait 10-15 min more.
Can’t fuck it up that way and it shouldn’t stick

I cup rice to 2 cups water and boil until all the water is gone

Dude, why not just follow the cooking instructions? Or a recipe? People generally don’t try cooking with guesswork.
