RICE - STAPLE DISH OF INDIA
We make everyday Plain rice in 2 ways. In the first method we cook our rice in a similar fashion to pasta. In the second method we retain the starch. Here I present both styles with love from India.

Steps:
- Ratio of rice to water when the quantity of rice increases: 2 cups rice: 3 3/4 cups water 3 cups rice: 5 1/2 cups water Method 1: Put water to boil.
- In the meanwhile wash the rice 3 times.
- When the water starts boiling add rice and salt.
- Check in 10 mins to see if the rice is cooked.
- The grains should be still firm but not raw.
- Break the grain between your fingers to check.
- Drain by covering with a fitting but flat lid and invert over the sink (as we do it) We then leave the inverted vessel for a good ten minutes to make sure all the water has drained.
- Or you can also drain in a colander as you drain pasta.
- (add some oil if you are doing it this way) Straighten and the rice is ready to serve.
- Method 2 Wash 1 cup of rice really well till the rice water is absolutely clear.
- (in a thick bottomed vessel- I use a non stick casserole) Now drain all the water and add 2 cups of water and 1 tsp salt (or according to taste) Bring to a boil on high heat.
- Stir once.
- Reduce flame to low and cover and simmer for 10-15 mins or till the top of the rice gets holey (small pits are formed in the rice) and when the vessel is tilted you do not see any water (totally dry).
- Loosen the rice when hot with the back of a serving spoon.
- Tip: YOu can add a few drops of lime to the water when you put the rice to boil with the salt.
- It helps to separate the grains.

INDIAN STYLE BASMATI RICE
This is a savory Indian style rice dish flavored with whole spices and fried onions. Soaking the basmati rice before cooking makes all the difference. Serve with your favorite Indian curry or dal (lentils). Make sure you warn people not to bite into the whole spices!

Steps:
- Place rice into a bowl with enough water to cover. Set aside to soak for 20 minutes.
- Heat the oil in a large pot or saucepan over medium heat. Add the cinnamon stick, cardamom pods, cloves, and cumin seed. Cook and stir for about a minute, then add the onion to the pot. Saute the onion until a rich golden brown, about 10 minutes. Drain the water from the rice, and stir into the pot. Cook and stir the rice for a few minutes, until lightly toasted. Add salt and water to the pot, and bring to a boil. Cover, and reduce heat to low. Simmer for about 15 minutes, or until all of the water has been absorbed. Let stand for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork before serving.
