How to Cook Minute Rice

Cooking Minute Rice is super easy and quick! Here are some simple steps to help you make this tasty side dish in just a few minutes:

Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients

Before you start, make sure you have everything you need. You’ll need Minute Rice, water, and you can also use a little salt or butter if you want to add some extra flavor.

Step 2: Boil the Water

First, take a pot and fill it with the amount of water mentioned on the Minute Rice package. Put the pot on the stove and turn on the heat to bring the water to a boil. Be careful and ask an adult for help if you need it!

Step 3: Add the Rice

Once the water is boiling, carefully add the Minute Rice to the pot. Give it a quick stir to make sure all the rice is covered by the water.

Step 4: Cover and Wait

Put a lid on the pot and turn off the heat. Let the rice sit for about 5 minutes. During this time, the rice will absorb the water and become nice and fluffy.

Step 5: Fluff the Rice

After 5 minutes, take off the lid and use a fork to fluff the rice. This means gently stirring it to separate the grains and make it light and airy.

Step 6: Add Some Flavor

If you want, you can add a pinch of salt or a small piece of butter to the rice. This will make it taste even better!

Step 7: Serve and Enjoy

Your Minute Rice is ready to eat! Serve it as a side dish with your favorite meal and enjoy the delicious taste.
