There are many varieties of rice and methods for its preparation, as a result of which boiled rice has the most diverse consistency. Rice cooked according to the classic recipe can be eaten as an independent dish, or as an ingredient in the implementation of complex recipes.

Boil water, add salt to it, add rice, cover the pan with a lid. It is not necessary to open the lid or interfere with the contents of the pan. Start a timer, keep rice for 5 minutes over high heat, then reduce heat to medium and cook for 2 minutes. For the final 2 minutes, turn down the heat to a minimum.

Turn off the heat, but do not open the lid for another 10 minutes. After this time, you will find ready-made friable rice in a pan, a grain to a grain. Another advantage of this method is that rice does not burn during cooking, which means that the pan remains clean.
