Notes

  • Rinse Brown Basmati Rice: Make sure to drain well after you rinse your rice to avoid throwing off the Rice Water ratio.
  • Rice Water Ratio: According to our experiments, different brands of brown basmati rice may need different amounts of water. So, make sure you adjust the Rice Water Ratio according to your brand and texture preferences.
  • Rice Texture: With the above Rice to Water ratio, the brown basmati rice will come out a bit chewy. The rule is the more liquid you use, the softer the rice.
  • Rate Amy + Jacky's Recipe: If you've tried our recipe, rate the recipe in the Comments section. Thank you!
  • If your rice comes out too chewy for your liking, add another ¼ cup (63ml) of cold water or unsalted chicken stock next time.
  • If you prefer softer fluffier rice, add an extra ¼ cup (63ml) to ½ cup (125ml) of cold water or unsalted chicken stock.
