How to Make Thai Rice

  1. Rinse 1 cup of jasmine rice thoroughly under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch for fluffier rice.
  2. Combine the rinsed rice, 1 ¼ cups of water, and a pinch of salt in a medium saucepan.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, then immediately reduce heat to the lowest setting, cover tightly with a lid, and simmer for 15 minutes.
  4. Remove from heat and let the rice steam, covered, for another 10 minutes.
  5. Fluff the rice gently with a fork before serving. For an extra touch of Thai flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of coconut milk or a squeeze of lime juice before serving.
