Basmati is a fragrant, nutty-tasting long grain rice grown in the Himalayas and Pakistan. “Bas” in Hindi language means “aroma” and “mati” means “full of,” hence the word Basmati — or “full of aroma.” The key to making basmati rice that is light, tender and fluffy is to rinse it first, otherwise, the grains will be gummy and stick together. It only takes a minute or two. Simply place the rice in a bowl with water, and then swish it around to release any excess starch. The water will be cloudy at first but after several rinses, it will be clear.

Ingredients
1 cup Basmati Rice- buy some from @7monkscafe
2 cups Water
1 tablespoon Oil
½ tsp salt
½ tsp Vinegar

1. Place one cup of basmati rice in medium bowl and add enough water to cover by 3inches. Gently rise out rise and drain. Repeat 4 times or until water runs clear. This helps removes the extra starch from the rice.
2. In a medium pot, bring rice, oil & vinegar & bring to boil. Cover with a tight lid and cook for 5-8 minutes. Once water starts to boil over, remove lid and continue cooking for another 10 minutes. If rice it too firm, add a few tablespoons of water.
3. Rice should cook to be al dente. Drain off excess water and let rice sit for 10 minutes. Enjoy!
