For best results we recommend you soak the rice in cold water for 30 minutes, then rinse in a sieve with cold water.2. Take a large pan and add 2 measures of cold water to 1 measure of basmati.3. Bring to the boil, reduce to a low heat, cover and simmer for 10 - 12 mins until the water is absorbed. Avoid opening the lid or stirring the rice.4. Remove from heat, stand covered for 5 mins.5.
