Time 20m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup instant rice
2 beef bouillon cubes or 2 chicken bouillon cubes
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried onion flakes

Steps:

  • Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring once with a fork.
  • Reduce heat, cover and simmer 12 to 14 minutes, or until all liquid is absorbed.

Tips:

  • Prep Ingredients: Before starting, measure and prep all ingredients. This will make the cooking process smoother.
  • Choose the Right Rice: Different types of rice have different cooking times and textures. Use long-grain rice for this recipe.
  • Toast the Rice: Toasting the rice before cooking gives it a nutty flavor and prevents it from sticking together.
  • Use the Correct Water Ratio: The amount of water you use will affect the texture of the rice. Follow the recipe's instructions for the best results.
  • Cook Over Medium Heat: Cooking the rice over medium heat allows it to cook evenly without burning.
  • Don't Stir the Rice: Stirring the rice while it cooks can make it gummy. Stir only once, gently, after adding the water.
  • Let the Rice Rest: After cooking, let the rice rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the rice to absorb any remaining moisture.
  • Season to Taste: Add salt and pepper to taste before serving. You can also add other herbs or spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or dried thyme.
